This battle ended in a serious defeat for the Dark Lord Sauron. Gil-Galad requested aid from Numenor, and the Numenorians sent a massive marine force under Admiral Ciryatur. The combined armies of elves and men totally decimated Sauron's forces, and Sauron (with the One Ring), fled. Also, Sauron had split his forces, sending some of his troops to siege Imladris, while his other forces joined with him to fight off Gil-Galad and Ciryatur's forces.
