Manwë, Lord of the Valar
This is a page in tribute to Manwë, the Lord of the Valar and the Eagles. I, being a new member of the Realm of Manwë, thought I should make a page for him. Without him, no Thorondor, so the site would end up with a really bad, boring name... like Fëathoron's Crack-Pot Site... Anyway, this page will have info on Manwë and the Eagles for huge fans like me.
Manwë is known for his love for birds, the sky, and really all living creatures. He was, in the mind of Iluvatar, the brother of Melkor, but Manwë was a little naive, quick to forgive and unable to understand evil. He created the Eagles to watch and help in Middle-Earth. Blue eyes (like Elijah Wood as a comparison for Elijah fans) and clothed in blue with a sapphire sceptre, he is the husband of Varda, Lady of the Stars. His name means "Pure" or "Blessed" in Quenya. He was the dearest of Iluvatar and was wise and loving to his people. His love, compassion, and forgiveness are overflowing toward the people of Iluvatar.
The eagles are faithful servants and messagers that help those in need in Middle-Earth. Thorondor, 'Lord of the Eagles', rescued Beren, Luthien, and Maedhros from Melkor (as told in The Silmarillion) and was King of the Eagles in the First Age. The Eagles protected the realm of Gondolin in the Encircling Mountains. Gwaihir, the King of the Eagles in the Third Age and the most powerful Eagle of the Third Age, rescued countless people, like Gandalf from Isengard and after his fight with the Balrog. He and his brother, Lhandroval saved Frodo and Samwise on Mt. Doom after the Ring of Power was destroyed. Lhandroval, or 'Wide Wing', and Gwaihir, 'Wind Lord' are both descendents of Thorondor and fought in the The Battle of the Five Armies. Eagles, such as Meneldor the Swift, could keep the fell beasts of the Nazgul at bay by the Black Gates! They are an amazing race of birds, the eyes of Manwë!
