During the journey to Belegaer, gradually the number of the Elves began to lessen as various groups dropped away. But others, henceforth called the Avari, declared that they preferred starlight and the wide spaces of Middle-earth. Then the Valar, pleased with the outcome, summoned the Elves to Valinor, seeking fellowship with them, they were captivated by the beauty of the elves.Īt Oromë's urging, many of the Elves (especially the kindreds of Ingwë, Finwë, and Elwë) agreed. After a great battle and a siege against Utumno, which reshaped the earth itself, Melkor was bound and cast into the prison of Mandos. At the counsel of Ilúvatar, Manwë, King of the Valar, decided that they must go to war against Melkor to protect the Quendi from him, beginning the Battle of the Powers. He had the light of Aman in his eyes and face, and they were drawn to him.Īfter spending a while among the Quendi, Oromë returned to Valinor and took council with the other Valar and Valier. Though at first the Quendi were afraid of Oromë, the noblest among them saw that he was no dark horseman, as the lies of Melkor claimed. Oromë espies the first Elves by Anke Eißmann The Elves are distinguished from the other two races, the Men and the Dwarves, especially by the fact of their near immortality. The Elves ( Quendi) were the first of the races of the Children of Ilúvatar, known also as the Firstborn for that reason.
