And
they
called
that
land
Elenna
,
which
is
Starwards
;
but
also
Anadune
,
which
is
Westernesse
,
Numenore
in
the
High
Eldarin
tongue
.
This
was
the
beginning
of
that
people
that
in
the
Grey
-
elven
speech
are
called
the
Dunedain
:
the
Numenoreans
,
Kings
among
Men
.
But
they
did
not
thus
escape
from
the
doom
of
death
that
Iluvatar
had
set
upon
all
Mankind
,
and
they
were
mortal
still
,
though
their
years
were
long
,
and
they
knew
no
sickness
,
ere
the
shadow
fell
upon
them
.
Therefore
they
grew
wise
and
glorious
,
and
in
all
things
more
like
to
the
Firstborn
than
any
other
of
the
kindreds
of
Men
;
and
they
were
tall
,
taller
than
the
tallest
of
the
sons
of
Middle
-
earth
;
and
the
light
of
their
eyes
was
like
the
bright
stars
.
But
their
numbers
increased
only
slowly
in
the
land
,
for
though
daughters
and
sons
were
born
to
them
,
fairer
than
their
fathers
,
yet
their
children
were
few
.
Of
old
the
chief
city
and
haven
of
Numenor
was
in
the
midst
of
its
western
coasts
,
and
it
was
called
Andunie
because
it
faced
the
sunset
.
But
in
the
midst
of
the
land
was
a
mountain
tall
and
steep
,
and
it
was
named
the
Meneltarma
,
the
Pillar
of
Heaven
,
and
upon
it
was
a
high
place
that
was
hallowed
to
Eru
Iluvatar
,
and
it
was
open
and
unroofed
,
and
no
other
temple
or
fane
was
there
in
the
land
of
the
Numenoreans
.
At
the
feet
of
the
mountain
were
built
the
tombs
of
the
Kings
,
and
hard
by
upon
a
hill
was
Armenelos
,
fairest
of
cities
,
and
there
stood
the
tower
and
the
citadel
that
was
raised
by
Elros
son
of
Earendil
,
whom
the
Valar
appointed
to
be
the
first
King
of
the
Dunedain
.
Now
Elros
and
Elrond
his
brother
were
descended
from
the
Three
Houses
of
the
Edain
,
but
in
part
also
both
from
the
Eldar
and
the
Maiar
;
for
Idril
of
Gondolin
and
Luthien
daughter
of
Melian
were
their
fore
-
mothers
.
The
Valar
indeed
may
not
withdraw
the
gift
of
death
,
which
comes
to
Men
from
Iluvatar
,
but
in
the
matter
of
the
Half
-
elven
Iluvatar
gave
to
them
the
judgement
;
and
they
judged
that
to
the
sons
of
Earendil
should
be
given
choice
of
their
own
destiny
.
And
Elrond
chose
to
remain
with
the
Firstborn
,
and
to
him
the
life
of
the
Firstborn
was
granted
.
But
to
Elros
,
who
chose
to
be
a
king
of
Men
,
still
a
great
span
of
years
was
allotted
,
many
times
that
of
the
Men
of
Middle
-
earth
;
and
all
his
line
,
the
kings
and
lords
of
the
royal
house
,
had
long
life
even
according
to
the
measure
of
the
Numenoreans
.
But
Elros
lived
five
hundred
years
,
and
ruled
the
Numenoreans
four
hundred
years
and
ten
.
Thus
the
years
passed
,
and
while
Middle
-
earth
went
backward
and
light
and
wisdom
faded
,
the
Dunedain
dwelt
under
the
protection
of
the
Valar
and
in
the
friendship
of
the
Eldar
,
and
they
increased
in
stature
both
of
mind
and
body
.
For
though
this
people
used
still
their
own
speech
,
their
kings
and
lords
knew
and
spoke
also
the
Elven
tongue
,
which
they
had
learned
in
the
days
of
their
alliance
,
and
thus
they
held
converse
still
with
the
Eldar
,
whether
of
Eressea
or
of
the
west
-
lands
of
Middle
-
earth
.
And
the
loremasters
among
them
learned
also
the
High
Eldarin
tongue
of
the
Blessed
Realm
,
in
which
much
story
and
song
was
preserved
from
the
beginning
of
the
world
;
and
they
made
letters
and
scrolls
and
books
,
and
wrote
in
them
many
things
of
wisdom
and
wonder
in
the
high
tide
of
their
realm
,
of
which
all
is
now
forgot
.
So
it
came
to
pass
that
,
beside
their
own
names
,
all
the
lords
of
the
Numenoreans
had
also
Eldarin
names
;
and
the
like
with
the
cities
and
fair
places
that
they
founded
in
Numenor
and
on
the
shores
of
the
Hither
Lands
.
For
the
Dunedain
became
mighty
in
crafts
,
so
that
if
they
had
had
the
mind
they
could
easily
have
surpassed
the
evil
kings
of
Middle
-
earth
in
the
making
of
war
and
the
forging
of
weapons
;
but
they
were
become
men
of
peace
.
Above
all
arts
they
nourished
shipbuilding
and
sea
-
craft
,
and
they
became
mariners
whose
like
shall
never
be
again
since
the
world
was
diminished
;
and
voyaging
upon
the
wide
seas
was
the
chief
feat
and
adventure
of
their
hardy
men
in
the
gallant
days
of
their
youth
.
