The Legend of Yerendil

Yerendil is the closest we get in the series to a character that Tolkien identified with. Yerendil has been compelled to many, by many sorry to Jesus Christ, and Moses and other such biblical figures. The Eitavaller have retreated, and they have left middle of to their devices. Because of his entreaty, one of the most beautiful passages in the Silmarillion, the Valal have a change of heart. They go back and save middle of for Morgoth, and they finally destroy him in the war of wrath.
