Nightmare Fuel / The Starless Road

• The spiders that are everywhere in the Void.
• The description of the spider queen.
  A hideous swollen beast lurked above him. Its long hairy legs, each ending in a huge black claw, were so large that they bent around the walls of the throne room and had taken the place of some of the ugly pillars that had once supported the roof. Most of the bulk of the creature was on the ceiling: its gigantic head was somewhere above the throne, and its many glittering eyes watched Fingon with malicious amusement. [...] Its misshapen back had a suggestion of heaving movement, as if many more crawling things lay just under the surface of its skin ready to burst forth at any moment.
