憤怒之戰
After the War of Wrath, the Valar tried to summon the Elves back to Valinor. Many complied, but some stayed. During the Second Age they founded the Realms of Lindon (all that was left of Beleriand after the cataclysm), Eregion, and Rhovanion (Mirkwood). Sauron, Morgoth's former servant, made war upon them, but with the aid of the Númenóreans they defeated him, though both the king of the Noldorin Elves, Gil-galad, and Elendil, king of the Númenóreans, were killed. During the Second and Third Ages, they held some protected realms such as Lothlorien, ruled by Galadriel and Celeborn, Rivendell, ruled by Elrond and home to the Elf-Lord Glorfindel, and the Grey Havens, ruled by Círdan the shipwright, with the aid of the Three Rings of Power. Círdan and his Elves built the ships on which the Elves departed, when they chose, to Valinor.
