Category:Farthest east



Farthest East refers to the Lands of the eastern Coasts of Middle-Earth, a vast Area separated from Central Middle-earth by the huge mountain Range known as the Red Mountains.These Lands set along the Coast of the Romenear are also known as The Amrûn (S."Sunrise", "East") in the Westlands]".The Inhabitants of these Lands however refer to it as "The Lands of Dawn" or only distinguish between the two great eastern empires of old [[Wômawas Drûs and Lôchas Drûs.

The Elder Days
In the Age of Stars the Lands of Dawn were roamed by wandering Avari-Tribes, most of these were Nelyar of the Host of Nurwe who lived in the shadows of the forests and loved the Shorelands, some of these eventually stayed in the East and formed steady homes in Carangalen, Calentaur or the eastern Isles of címóníemor and Uiven

The First Age
In the first Age the Lands of Dawn were settled by wild tribes of Men who had fled from Hildorien.These first Men who crossed the red Mountains became the Woodmen of the Far east, for they hid within the great Mistwoods and Bluewoods that covered the Lands beyond the Red Peaks.Others settled the Mountains and foothills, these were the Men of the Red Mountains some of whom befriend the Eastern Dwarves of the Stonefoots and Blacklocks who now expanded their realm from their awakening-Place in the great North-Hall to the mountains of Ruuriik.

This first Wave followed a second one, a collection of tribes called "Avaradan" by the Avari.These Men had been pupils of the Hisildi or Twilight-Elves before and some of them had served the Great Temple, although most of them had repented and had escaped from the terrible Battle of Palisor.

The Second AgeOsten.jpg
In the Second Age the Dragon Utumkodur came to the northern Orocarni and the local Avaradan-Tribes made her their Object of worship.Under Tutelage of the Dragon-Goddess four Tribes, the Wômac, Wôm, Krawaan-Góak and Krawaan-Móak formed an alliance that became known as the Wômaw. These Dragon-worshippers subjugated their Suurk Kaelaw neighbours and eventually the Ruulurk of the northern Isles.They formed the "Wômaw Realm" or Wômawas Drûs whose Hig-King or Mûl was the High-Priest of Utumkodur.

Later as the Wômaw's power expanded, Wômaw and Surk-Warriors also moved against the southern braric, Proric and Fale-Peoples of the Shelf-lands and eventually founded the southern sister Realm Lôchas Drûs.

As the Dragon became more and more agressive finally the Avari of Helcarth under their Queen Mormiresûl made an attack on Utumkodur's Temple and slew the golden dragon-Goddess.With the Death of Utumkodur a new Hion came to the throne and the first Mûl of Wômawas Drûs were known as Elf-friends.

In the 12. century Wild Men and Orcs from the north invaded Ralian and Faelaan, one year later Horl fell.It was an ancient Servant of Morgoth who had been stirred, [[Múar the northern Warlord, a fire-Demon who had commanded Morgoth's host in the Battle of Palisor.Múar's small Realm lasted for over one and a half millenium, until the Dwarves of Ruuriik slew him in 2741.

As peace had returned to the Lands of Dawn a new Threat arose, mighty Seafarers from unknown Lands of the West visited the coasts of the Drûs and became more agressive and domitating with every visit.Small Harbours and Trading-Posts became centers of Slave-Hunts and raids and Tanûl the Mûl of the Wômaw sought the council of Mormiresûl.Mormiresûl now had been visited by a man who called himself Annatar, obviously a Maia of Great Power and one of the Aulendili.Via Mormiresûl's mediation Annatar became an entrusted friend of the young Prince Kómul who later made himself King and led the Wômaw into an Age of Darkness as he accepted one of the nine Rings of Men from his advisor Annatar, who now turned out to have been the Dark lord Sauron.Meanwhile in Lôchas Drûs the Dog-Lord, after having freed the Land of Wôl from the K'prur-Tyranny, made himself King of all the Lôchan Lands, it was generally unknown that also this great Far-Eastern King had received a gift from the Lord of the Rings, but the Sister-Realms of Komûl and Dendra Dwar cooperated and both introduced the Cult of the Eye and reverence to the King of the World.

Komûl ruled Wômawas Drûs for 153 years and the Dog-Lord's Empire had lasted even longer, but with the capitulation of Sauron also his reign ended.SA 3262 Sauron went to Númenór as a prisoner, the Dog-Lord vanished and Komûl fled wômawas Drûs and his cousin Aôn, supported by Númenórean Explorers, seized the throne.Lôchas Drûs however remained a Dark Realm with the Dog-Lord's nephew Dendra Swip taking over the throne.

After Sauron's return in 3320 Komûl returned to Shay, the last part of his realm still loyal to Sauron and began to reconquer his old Domain until most of Sauron's forced were drawn away to the westlands in 3440 to withstand the Siege of Mordor by the Last Alliance.As Sauron perished, also Komûl faded away and with him fell the eastern Kingdom of Shadows.

the Third Age
In the early third Age the Lôchaw were able to break the Rule of the Dog-Kings and to reestablish their former domain.The Sghelf-Lands were freed from the influence of the Cult of the Eye although the Kanks of Ruatar formed a small and barbaric Kingdom.It remained a well hidden secret that, guarded by the Kanks, the Shadow hid within the Iron Forest of Ruartar and started to regain much of his old strength.At his side gathered the nine Ringwraiths, among them the Dark Easterlings Khamûl and Dwâr.

When Sauron felt strong enough he returned to the Westlands and made up a hideout at Dol Guldur, posing as the Necromancer, a (lesser) dark Sorcerer.Meanwhile Khamûl built the Fortresses of Sart and Mang in the Wind Mountains to prepare his return, meanwhile Dwar returned to his fortress Aalk Wâw.The combined Forces of Ruartar and Wâw broke the Rule of Lôchas Drûs between TA 1507 and TA 1617, renewing the Dark Worship in most of the Shelf-Lands.Under pressure the Wômaw and Lôchaw empire split up in 1794 and various Lords emerged claiming to be rightful Hionvara.This was partially the Work of two men known as Lianis and Helaman who had appeared before the Hion of Wômawas Drûs and had encouraged him to withstand the continuing attacks by the Shay and Orcs.

In 2400 TA Khamûl finally was sucessful and with the combined forces of the Kank of Ruartar and Shay and the wild Tribes of the Rûbor and Vorgani the last divisions of Wômawas Drûs fell and the Eastern Domain came under the rule of the Lawmasters, a dark clergy enforcing the Law of Sûr.Helaman and Lianis at this time had already fled to the plains of central middle-Earth, hiding among the wild lawless steppe-nomads and Avari Elves, sewing Rebellion in Lurs Vorganis and among the Rahiwenna.

In 2656 TA the Mûl of Wômawas Drûs tried to expand into central middle-earth and unite his force with the Golden Army, but his efforts failed when a unexpected alliance of the Steppe-Tribes, eastern Dwarves and Avari-Elves destroyed his host at the borders of Feamardi and Luinemar.The Mûl was replaced and a rebel-Realm known as the Ôn arose in the far east, hunting down all remnants of the Servants of Sûr.

In 3019 finally Sauron felt he had recovered enough of his strength in a great Attack the eastern parts of the Golden Army and Steppe-Princes loyal to the Dark Lord united with the Armies of the Shelf-Lands and attacked the Ôn-Lords, but in the hour of victory Sauron's spirit was destroyed with the destruction of the one ring and his eastern Army could be repelled by the Rebels.
