Summary
Long ago, when Morgoth was the greatest threat of Arda, Eru and the Valar found that the lands they had created through their tears and hardships would be in great need of protection. But whenever they thought of what would be the best protectors of Arda, they found themselves unable to find any they were willing to sacrifice to Morgoth’s grasp.
In the end, their only option was to strike a bargain with Morgoth. In order to confine him to his realms, he was given beings which would keep him there as long as he had free reign to do as he pleased with the protectors the Valar had chosen. Though they knew that such a bargain was a great price to pay for the poor souls that would take the burden upon their backs.
They soon found themselves in need of souls who would be willing to offer themselves to protect their kith and kin, but who would volunteer for such a sacrifice?
For some time, the Valar found no answer to their problem until one day Yavanna stepped forward with a child of hers in tow.
