The Journey of the Infinite Wizard

As their language had acquired many Elvish words, it was not long before Finrod was able to communicate and converse with Beor; while he still lived among them, the two of them often talked together. But when Finrod

When De asked Beo about the origin of mankind and their journey, Beo could only tell a little; because in fact he only knew a little.

Diandian, the ancestors of his tribe rarely mentioned their past, and there was always a silence falling on their memories. "There is a darkness behind us," Bio said: "We must turn our backs to it.

, we don’t want to go back there, we don’t even want to think about it. Our hearts turn to the west, where we believe we will find light.”

But later legend among the Eldar was that when the sun first rose and men awoke in Hildorien, Morgoth's spies found out, and the news soon reached his ears,

To him this is a big deal.

So, he secretly left Angband in the shadows, left the war to Sauron, and came to Middle-earth in person. In fact, the Eldar knew nothing about his dealings with humans.

, and very little was known afterwards; but they could clearly see that there was a darkness lurking in the hearts of humans (just like the shadow of the murder of their kin and the curse of Mandos and Jiangning lurking in the hearts of the Noldor), even the first people they met

The same goes for the group of humans who became friends of the elves.

Morgoth's greatest desire was to corrupt or destroy all that was new and good; and his mission undoubtedly included this purpose - to turn men into enemies of the Eldar through fear and lies, and to destroy all that was new and good.

They were brought from the east against Beleriand.

But this plan of his was slow to mature, and was never entirely successful; for the Men (it is said) were at first very few in number, and Morgoth, fearful of the union and strength of the Eldar, hastened back to Angband.

, leaving only a few servants living among humans, and they were not as powerful and cunning as he was.

Finrod learned from Beor that many other humans with similar ideas were coming west. "There are others of my race who have crossed the mountains." He said: "They should go as they should.

Not too far; those Haradines who speak differently to us

Humans are still in the valley at the eastern foot of the mountain range. They want to wait and see before taking action. There are also some humans who speak words that are more similar to ours. We have dealt with them several times. They were walking ahead of us.

But we rise above them; for

They were many in number, always moving together, and advancing very slowly, and the leader who ruled them was called Marech." (Haradin, the second family of the Edain, was first led by Haldad, and later by his daughter Hareth.

Commander.) (human title, Quenya Atani

, Sindarin Edain.) (Marich, the third family of the Edain, later became the most powerful branch. Initially led by Marech, and later by his descendant Hador, this family became

It is the later famous Ma Ruihe family, which can also be called the Hado family.)

However, the green elves living in Ossiriand were very troubled by the waves of humans moving in. When they heard that there was a group of Eldar kings coming across the sea, they sent envoys to Finrod to tell them

He poured out his bitterness wantonly. They wanted Finrod to persuade humans to leave the west and go back and forth wherever they came from, because humans cut down trees and hunted animals, which made the green elves very dissatisfied. They also said that if humans don't leave, then they will

It will make human life more miserable.

So, at Finrod's suggestion, Beor gathered all the families and tribesmen who had migrated with him. They crossed the Gillian River and were on the east bank of the Cron River, south of the forest of Elmoth Valley, near Doriath.

On the border, Finrod settled in the land of Amrod and Anres; thereafter that area was called Istorad, "the place of encampment." After a year passed, Finrod wanted to return to his

home, Beor asked to go with him; so he served King Nargothrond for the rest of his life. It was for this reason that he received the name Beor. Before that, his original name was

Balaam; in the language of his people, "Beo" means "retainer". He handed over the responsibility of ruling the people to his eldest son Balaam, and never returned to Istorade since then.

Not long after Finrod left, another group of humans from Beothi came to Beleriand. The first people to come were the Haradin tribe, but after encountering the unfriendly green elves, they turned to the north.

Shagari, under the jurisdiction of Caranthir the son of Fernor, settled down; and they settled there for some time, and the people of Caranthir paid no attention to them. After another year, Marech led his

The tribesmen also crossed the mountain

They were a group of tall, warrior-like people. They marched together in an orderly manner. The elves of Osiriand did not dare to stop them, so they had to hide. However, Marech heard that Beor's people lived in the same place.

On the green and fertile land, he followed the road of the dwarves and settled to the east and south of the area where Balaam, the son of Beor, and his people lived; the two peoples established a very good friendship.

Finrod himself often returned to visit Men, and many other Elves living in the west, including the Noldor and the Sindar, also came all the way to Istorad, eager to see what the prophecy had long promised.

The Edenians appeared. Originally, in Valinor

When speaking of the coming men in the narrative, they are called Atani, "the Second Coming." Now in the language of Beleriand, this name has become Eden, but this name only includes becoming the friends of the elves.

The three families of (Hador, Húrin, and Túrin)

Fingolfin, the supreme king of the Noldor, sent a messenger to express his welcome to them; so many young and eager Edainians came to serve under the princes of the Eldar. Among them was Marech.

The son of Malach, he lived in Hithlum for fourteen years; he learned the language of the elves, and the elves named him Aladan.

The Ishun were not always content to live in Istorad, and many of them still wished to continue westward; but they knew not the way. What stood before them was the protective ring of Doriath, to the south

It was the impenetrable swampy area of ​​Sirion. So the three royal families of the Noldor saw the hope in the power of men and their descendants, and sent word to the Edain that they could come here if they wished.

Live in the same place with your own people.

In this way, the migration of the Edain people began; at first they left in twos and threes, and later entire families and clans set out to leave Istorad. By about fifty years later, there were thousands of them.

Humans moved into the Elven King's territory to live. Most of them walked a long way north, and those roads later became very familiar to them.

The people of Beor moved to Dothonion and lived in the land ruled by the Finarfin family. Most of the people of Aradan moved west (Malach always lived in Istorad until his death).

Some of them came to Hithron, but Magol son of Aladan and many of the people crossed the river Sirion into East Beleriand, and they dwelt for a while in the valleys on the south side of the Wethrin Mountains.

It is said that no one except Finrod went to consult with King Eru Thingol about this whole matter; Thingol was very unhappy, on the one hand because no one knew about him, and on the other hand, because of the appearance of humans

Before the news reached his ears, he had been dreaming about their arrival and was very distressed about it. Because

Therefore, he ordered that men were not allowed to live anywhere else except in the north, and that the princes they served should be responsible for all their words and deeds; and he said: "As long as my kingdom exists, there will be no one in Doriath."

Humans are not allowed to enter, not even the Beor family who serve my beloved Finrod."

Melian said nothing to him at the time, but afterwards she said to Galadriel: "Soon many great things will happen. A man, a man of the House of Beor, will indeed break in.

, not even the girdle of Melian could stop him, it was a fate greater than I that sent him in; from here

The song that the event spawned will remain as long as Middle-earth exists." (Referring to Beren, the later son-in-law of Thingol and Melian, son of Barahir and Emerdil.

A human of the Beor family. His love story with Lúthien, the daughter of Thingol, has been sung in Middle-earth.)

The news of humans coming to the West was naturally learned by Morgoth. He also learned that humans lived with the Noldor royal family and made friends with the elves. Because, in the hearts of humans, lurk Morgoth.

The shadow left by Si.
