Wars of Beleriand: Of the Sindar and the Great Journey | Silmarillion Documentary

The video explores the aftermath of the War of the Valar and the Eldar's Great Journey to the West, leaving behind the Avari who refused the call of the Valar. It highlights the different Elven kindreds, focusing on the hesitations and divisions of the Teleri.

When the Eldar pass by Utumno, losing many members and encountering challenges, they settle in Atyamar but face harsh weather, prompting them to continue westward. The Teleri craft boats to cross the Anduin, but many of them refuse to pass, fearing the Misty Mountains. The Eldar progress through Eriador to Beleriand, with some kindreds granted passage to the West.

The Sindar, captivated by the beautiful shores or in search of Elwë, settle in various regions. The video explores interactions with Dwarves and the rise of Morgoth. It concludes with the First Battle of Beleriand, where Morgoth's forces threaten Thingol's realm and besiege Falas.

Overall, the video provides a detailed narrative of the Sindar, showcasing their journey, divisions, settlements, alliances, and conflicts within the early days of the Wars of Beleriand.
