After falling into the abyss in Númenor, Sauron re-establishes his kingdom in Mordor and makes war upon Men and Elves. Sauron takes Minas Ithil. Isildur flees in search of Elendil. Anárion fights back Sauron, but recognizes that a greater force is needed. The Last Alliance is formed, and war is waged against Sauron. Anárion is slain, but the assault comes all the way to the tower of Barad-dûr, where it is sieged for seven years. Sauron comes forth and kills Gil-galad and Elendil, but Isildur cuts the Ruling Ring from Sauron’s hand, and he is vanquished for a time. Elendil refuses to destroy the One Ring.

Sauron continues war with the Elves. Eregion is laid waste, and Celebrimbor is slain. Elrond establishes Rivendell. Sauron successfully collects the other Rings of Power and gives seven to the Dwarves and nine to Men. Dwarves prove hard to tame, but the influence of the Rings leads them to seek great wealth, often to their demise. Men prove easier to rule. The Nine Kings grow in might and power, but ultimately succumb to the power of the One Ring and are made Ringwraiths, Sauron’s most powerful servants.

After Morgoth is defeated and captured, Sauron repents of his deeds, but upon facing a sentence from Manwë flees into Middle-earth and returns to his evil ways. After the War of Wrath, Beleriand is destroyed and swallowed by the sea up to Ered Luin. Gil-galad rules Lindon by the Gulf of Lhûn just east of Ered Luin. Teleri elves from Doriath and Ossiriand move inland and dwell among Silvan Elves. The remaining Noldor dwell in Eregion near Khazad-dûm and prosper in friendship with the Dwarves. Sauron seeks to gain influence over the Noldori Elves. He wins them over by insisting that he desires to make Middle-earth a great land. He calls himself Lord of Gifts and shares his knowledge and lore with them. The Elves create several Rings of Power. Sauron creates his One Ring in order to control the wearers of the other rings. Due to their might, he is forced to put much of his strength into the One Ring, but he is able to see all that is done by the wearers of the Rings of Power. The Elves sense him and remove their rings. In anger, Sauron makes open war on them and demands that they give over the rings since they were made with his lore. The Elves flee and are able to save the greatest Three Rings: Narya, the Ring of Fire; Nenya, the Ring of Water; and Vilya, the Ring of Air.

Ar-Pharazôn at last reaches the shores of Aman. Eru Ilúvatar himself shows his power and changes the world. A great chasm forms between Aman and Middle-earth, and all of Númenor along with her fleets are swallowed up on it. Ar-Pharazôn and his men are buried beneath falling hills. Amandil and his sons escape the cataclysm and establish kingdoms on Middle-earth. Sauron falls into the abyss, but not being mortal flesh, his spirit returns to Mordor, and he takes up his One Ring, now unable to take a form fair to men. The entire earth is changed by the power of Ilúvatar. Some lands are destroyed, new islands appear, rivers’ courses are changed, and most importantly, the world is made round and Aman hidden away. Sailors who seek it in the west find themselves back where they started. Yet because the Elves were still permitted to leave Middle-earth and come to Aman, it is believed that there is a Straight Way that does not bend with the earth and leads to Tol Eressëa and Aman–but the way is shown only to those permitted to find it.

As Ar-Pharazôn ages, Sauron urges him to make war on the Valar and claim the “land of the deathless”. Amandil decides to sail into the west like Eärendil his forefather and seek the pardon of the Valar. He counsels Elendil to take any remaining faithful men and flee from Númenor before the outbreak of war. These men take with them their families and heirlooms, namely the Seven Stones and the sapling from the fruit of Nimloth the White Tree. A great eagle-shaped cloud comes out of the West. Ar-Pharazôn boards his great ship, Alcarondas, Castle of the Sea, and he and the mighty fleet of Númenor disappear into the western sea.

Sauron becomes an esteemed counselor to the kings of Númenor. He stirs their greed and bids them seek untold riches in the far reaches of the world, including the Ancient Darkness beyond the Edge of the World where dwells Melkor. Ar-Pharazón and the Númenoreans begin worshiping the darkness. Amandil and his son Elendil are part of the Faithful and close to Ar-Pharazón. Amandil is hated by Sauron and is dismissed from the council. Sauron urges Ar-Pharazón to cut down the White Tree, but he will not for fear of the prophecy of Tar-Palantir. Suspecting that this will happen in due time, Isildur, son of Elendil, sneaks to the tree and removes a fruit before being assailed by guards. He escapes and a shoot grows from the fruit. Sauron cuts Nimloth the White Tree and orders the building of a great temple in Armenelos in which the tree is burned and sacrifices are made to Melkor that he would release them from death.

Sauron has risen to power, establishing himself in the land of Mordor and seeking to rule as a king over all kings and a god unto Men. In the time that the One Ring was forged, Tar-Minastir and the Númenoreans allied themselves with the Eldar and fought against Mordor. Shadow continues to spread in Númenor as kings begin to forsake friendship with the Elves. Ar-Pharazón the Golden becomes the King of Númenor. He is angered by Sauron’s growing power and marches into Middle-Earth to confront Sauron.

Following the War of Wrath, many Elves from Beleriand come to dwell on the Isle of Eressëa. Ossë and Aüle build a land for men between the Hither Lands and Valinor: Númenor, Westernesse. The Dúnedain are a tall and strong people who live long lives and know not sickness. Their chief city is called Andúnië, and they are ruled for 400 years by Elros, son of Eärendil who chooses the fate of men. The Dúnedain become mighty in craft, especially sea-craft. The Valar forbid them from sailing so far westward that they can no longer see Númenor, and the Númenoreans obey. They travel often eastward to Middle-Earth and help the men there, who are now feeble and broken, to order their lives. Yet, they always return to the west.

The hosts of the West meet Morgoth in battle. Although his power had grown immensely, The Valar destroy nearly all the Balrogs and Orcs. Men join the Valar in the fight, but others side with Morgoth. Driven to the end, Morgoth unleashes winged dragons that had not before been seen. Eärendil arrives in his ship with all the great birds of heaven, and they win victory against the dragons. Morgoth is again chained by Angainor, and his iron crown is turned into a collar, and the Eönwë takes and guards the two remaining Silmarils. The continent is badly misshapen: the seas spill in from great chasms, valleys are upheaved and hills leveled. Maedhros and Maglor, despite their weariness, attempt to take back the Silmarils. Eönwë declares that they have forfeited their right to them by their wicked and merciless deeds–especially the killing of Dior. Maedhros and Maglor are summoned to Valinor to face judgment.
