Two Lamps - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In the middle of Arda, where the light of the lamps mingled, laid the Great Lake with the island Almaren, where the Valar dwelt. |
 | | According to the earlier writings of Tolkien, there was also the Sea of Ringil to the south, perhaps associated with the roots of Ormal. |
 | | According to older writings not used in the published The Silmarillion, the Valar wanted peace with Melkor, and decided to ask his assistance: they wished to fix the lamps upon Arda's ground. |
