 Silvan Elves, A.D. 2954 Summer
King Thranduil Doriath, the Hidden Kingdom, was the greatest of the Sindarin realms in Beleriand. For many long years, it flourished under the rule of Elu Thingol and Melian his queen, but during the Wars of Beleriand it was destroyed, sacked first by treacherous dwarves and later by the jealous Sons of Fëanor. Many of those who survived the fall of the realm fled east past the towering peaks of the Hithaeglir into lands where the Tawarwaith -- Silvan elves long sundered from the elves of Beleriand -- dwelled.Being a rustic people lesser in wisdom than the Sindar, the Silvan elves accepted the Sindar as their lords. Under the guidance of Amdír and Oropher, the realms of Lindórinand and Eryn Lasgalen were established, and for many years the elves lived in peace. Peace, however, was not to last, for the rising power of Mordor forced the Silvan elves and their Sindarin princes to take up arms. During the Last Alliance of Elves and Men, Amdír and Oropher, along with their sons Amroth and Thranduil, heeded the call Gil-galad and led great hosts to battle. Sauron was defeated, but at great cost -- both Amdír and Oropher were slain, along with most of their armies.His heart filled with disquiet and disillusionment, Thranduil led his people northwards, where he established his Woodland Realm and delved an underground fortress in the style of Menegroth in Doriath. In Lindórinand, now known as Lothlórien, Amroth took over the lordship of his father's kingdom. After Amroth was lost at sea searching for his beloved, the Silvan maiden Nimrodel, Celeborn and Galadriel took up the guardianship of the realm, fortifying it against the resurgent power of Mordor.Under the guidance of the Lord and Lady of the Wood, the realm of Lothlórien shines in defiance of the shadow growing in the East, a fortress against the encroaching darkness. And while the Silvan elves of Lórien and the Woodland Realm may be ill-equipped in arms and armor when compared to their western kin, they are hardy and valiant warriors whose skill with the bow is unmatched and whose hatred of Sauron runs deep.
