Lords of Andúnië

The Lords of Andúnië ruled the city of Andúnië in the region of Andustar in Númenor.
== History ==
The Lords of Andúnië, named after their ancestral home, were descended from Silmariën, daughter and eldest child of Tar-Elendil the fourth King of Númenor. The laws of Númenor at that time would not allow her to rule as queen, so she wedded Elatan of Andúnië and took up residence there. Her father gifted her the Ring of Barahir and it passed down the line of Lords as a precious heirloom. Their son Valandil would be named the first Lord of Andúnië in about the seventh century of the Second Age.
Later in the Second Age, the Lords of Andúnië became leaders of The Faithful, or Elf-friends, as they remained friends with the Elves and faithful to the Valar. This was despite opposition and eventually persecution from the King's Men. During the reign of Ar-Gimilzôr the Lords were forced to move to Rómenna along with the rest of the Faithful, however their position was restored by Tar-Palantir, with Lord Amandil becoming a member of the royal council.
At the end of the Second Age, Númenor's estrangement from the Elves and the Valar became complete as Sauron corrupted Númenórean society to worship Morgoth. Seeking pardon of the Valar for the wickedness of the Númenóreans, Amandil the Faithful, Lord of Andúnië, sailed into the west but was never heard of again.
His son Elendil, the last Lord of Andúnië, did not join Ar-Pharazôn's Great Armament to attack Valinor, and instead fled with his sons Isildur and Anárion and the remaining Faithful in Nine great ships to Middle-earth, where they founded the lines of the Kings of Gondor and Arnor.
Elendil brought with him the Rod of Andúnië, the instrument of his lordship, which became a hereditary emblem of royal authority in Arnor, along with the Ring of Barahir. It later became known as the Sceptre of Annúminas and by the Third Age thought to be the oldest artefact made by Men remaining in Middle-earth.
