A podcast about Middle-earth and all things Tolkien.

0283 » Of Eldamar & the Princes of the Eldalië » The Silmarillion Chapter 5

With 3 groups of Elves – the Vanyar, Noldor, and Teleri – having arrived on the threshold of the Great Sea, they must make the final leg of their journey to the Land of the Valar, Aman, and will do so by extraordinary means. Once they arrive, they will establish their own kingdoms within the Blessed Realm.

In Chapter 5, we’ll learn:
– How the Elves came across the sea to the Blessed Realm
– The names of the kingdoms they established for themselves
– The names of key Elven figures, and their relations to one another.
