First War

The First War was the first conflict between Melkor and the Valar for the control of Arda, long before the War of the Great Jewels.
== History ==
When the Valar descended into Eä, Melkor followed them proclaiming the world to be his own kingdom and no others'. He contested their rule by creating chaos and ruin so whatever the Valar built was thrown down and despoiled. With much of their works in ruin and their labors wasted, the world was nevertheless made firm. The war ended when Tulkas the strong descended from the heavens and defeated Melkor, driving him away. This was the first deed of Arda Marred.The Silmarillion, Ainulindalë (The Music of the Ainur)The Complete Guide to Middle-earth
