Ñoldor
The Ñoldor are imaginary people creates by J.R.R. Tolkien.
They are the “Major Elves”, second legion of the Eldar during walk towards the west since Cuiviénen. They turned over on the Ground of the Medium at the request of Fëanor to recover the Silmaril S stolen by Morgoth. However, a great majority of Noldor chooses to follow the brother of Fëanor, Fingolfin. The return of Noldor towards the Earth of the Medium generated the first murders of the Elves by the Elves. Indeed, while arriving at the port of Alqualondë, Teleri refused to lend to Noldor the ships necessary to go out of Ground Medium. Fëanor thus seized those by the force, and left the ground of Aman without awaiting her brother. Fingolfin and they his had to cross to foot Helcaraxë, a dangerous strait covered with ice connecting the ground of Aman and the Earth of the Medium.
Noldor built several Ground kingdoms of the Medium, of which most known were Gondolin and Nargothrond. To the fall of Morgoth, the majority of Noldor turned over out of ground of Aman. Very little remained out of Ground of the Medium, following the example Galadriel or of Celebrimbor. The fall of Morgoth marked the end of the First Age. At the time of the Second Age, Noldor remained out of Ground of the Medium founded several other kingdoms, of which that of Eregion. They are the Elves of this kingdom who, misused by the disguises of Sauron, forged the Anneaux of Being able. They took share with the Battle of the Last Alliance against Sauron, and the last of them left the Earth of the Medium by the Gray Havres of Círdan after the final fall of Sauron, at the end of the Third Age.
The name (quenya Ñoldo, Sindarin Golodh) means “the Wise ones” (in the direction of those which have the knowledge, not of sagacity or a healthy judgment). Their language is the Quenya.
