The Battle of the Rain of Tears completely broke the backbone of the Mortal Alliance.
The failure brought by the war was comprehensive.
First, there was a big problem with the trust and unity of the elves.
The main force of the Battle of the Rain of Tears was Feino's children and the cousins of the second uncle's family. The descendants of the third uncle did not participate, and neither did the Xinda Elves.
On the third uncle's side, Ferragan was the last son. He was dead, and his successor refused to cooperate with Feino's children because Feino's children had plotted against his family business after Ferragan's death.
The Xinda Elves and most of the Teleri Elves did not participate in the war because of the Silmarils.
Feino's children asked King Tingge to hand over the Silmarils, and even threatened to send troops to attack Dorias (Tingge's kingdom) after the war.
If one looked at the map, it would be clear that Feino's children and his cousins were the first line of defense against Mirko, followed by the Xinda Elves.
Now that there was a conflict between the two sides, the defeated Feino's children could not stay at the second line of defense, and could only continue to wander to the south. Thus, the Xinda Elves were at the forefront, and the Nodo Elves at the back were unwilling and unable to provide support.
As mentioned before, Nodo was a "German Elf", Teleri was an "Italian Elf", and the Xinda Elves were the missing Teleri Elves.
How could they block this?
Nodo could be a barrier, but the Xinda Elves could not.
Another explosive point of the conflict between the elves was the Silmarils!
Previously, Feino's children were busy fighting the fifth "War of the Gods", and still had hope of defeating Mirko, who had two Silmarils.
Now that the external war had been defeated, even the strongest person felt despair. The external war had failed, and the internal conflict had nowhere to go, and could only erupt more violently.
Other than the internal conflict between the elves, there was also a crisis of trust between the elves and the humans.
Other than the three major families of Eden, the elves did not dare to trust any humans.
Not to mention the elves, even the humans themselves did not dare to trust the humans.
Before the Battle of the Rain of Tears, there were very few occupations such as road robbers and bandits. Even if there were, they were guerrillas at the northern border that specialized in ambushing the Orc patrols.
Now, countless humans who had lost their homes began to rob and kill the humans and elves that passed by, killing for money, regardless of friend or foe.
Mirko had truly won. Not only had he destroyed the Alliance, but he had also poisoned people's hearts and twisted humanity.
The sun was still there and the world was bright. However, the current Central Plains was even darker than the Dark Age after the destruction of the giant lamp.
The Four Elven Kingdoms: Gondolin of Torgon, Doriath of Torgon, Narthrond of Feragon's descendants, and Faras of Sedan fell one after another in the following years.
Speaking of the final destruction of the Elf Kingdom, there was one person who had to be mentioned. That person was the "Unlucky One" Tulin.
Well, he and his father, Hurin, were fully qualified to be spokesmen for the Eye of Ungorian.
Hu Lin and Tu Lin came from the Hado family, which was known as the "Loyal Martyrs". In order to protect Te Gang, Hu Lin fought to the last man, and he himself was captured after killing a hundred orcs.
Without his father and home, Turin grew up in the Ting Ge Palace. Unfortunately, he, who was a natural calamity, was too unfortunate.
When he was young, he accidentally killed an Elf official who humiliated him and was forced to escape from Doriath.
When he was young, he became a bandit and was later captured and tortured by the orcs. When he was unconscious, he was saved by his good friend. However, because he was dizzy, he thought that the orcs had come to torture him again. He went berserk and killed his best friend by mistake.
When he was middle-aged, he went to Narthrond to help the Elves fight against the orcs. He became a general and obtained the secret love of the Elf Princess. However, because he forcefully drove away the orcs nearby, the location of Narthrond, which was hidden in the valley, was exposed.
Uomu predicted the tragic fate of Narthrond and secretly sent people to ask the Elves to destroy the bridge that connected the city — to use the river to stop the orcs' attack. Turin refused.
Thus, Glaurung led the orcs straight into the city and slaughtered the Elf Kingdom.
What was worse was that Turin was affected by Glaurung's illusion. He ignored the cry for help of the captured Elf Princess and ran back to his hometown … He also accidentally killed his relatives and friends in his hometown.
When he woke up, he was filled with regret and hatred. He rushed back to Narthrond but saw the princess who loved him being humiliated and tortured by the orcs. Like a roasted frog, she was skewered on a sharpened wooden stake from her lower body. She died with her eyes wide open.
Turin was in so much pain that he wanted to die. He changed his name and wandered around. Finally, he integrated into a human tribe and married a gentle and virtuous wife. However … his wife was his long lost sister. Her memory was washed away by Glaurung and she was stranded here.
Before Glaurung died, he removed the curse. His sister and wife regained their memory. They couldn't accept this cruel reality and jumped into the river to commit suicide.
"F * ck, you win!" Turin raised his middle finger to the Eye of Angorian above his head and killed himself with his sword.
Uh, the Eye of Angorian was his old friend.
It was hard for others to see it even once in their lifetime. However, he had seen it once every few years since he was young. He was only in his thirties and he had seen it almost 10 times.
Every time he saw it, it represented a tragedy.
He had just killed Glaurung and became the number one dragon-slayer in Middle Earth. He thought that the Eye of Angorian wasn't here for him but he didn't expect …
Turin and his sister's wife had just died and his father, Hurin, was released by Mirko.
Before that, Mirko often released some captives to return to the humans and elves to collect information before returning to Angband.
Therefore, when Hurin returned, he didn't receive the cheers and enthusiasm that a hero should have. Instead, he was shunned by his old friends.
He was given the cold shoulder. His son and daughter became brother and sister. His wife was missing. Hurin was desperate.
When he faced Morgoth, he didn't give in. Instead, he cursed. He was the first human to withstand the pressure of Mirko's God. Even Baylon, who had fallen into Mirko's shadow, fainted due to exhaustion.
But now, Hurin was just a lonely old man who was over 60 years old.
He stood on the cliff and shouted Te Gang's name in the direction of Gondolin. During the Battle of the Rain of Tears, he sacrificed his life to save Te Gang.
The second son of his second uncle was not an ungrateful person. His Gondolin was also a secret place. He couldn't expose it to Morgoth.
But when Hurin shouted, Mirko knew the location of Gondolin.
Hurin didn't know that Mirko had been secretly watching him.
Not long after, Gondolin fell. Te Gang died and his country was destroyed.
Then, Hurin sent Ting Ge's Doriath to his death. He returned to the ruins of Slond and took the most exquisite necklace in the world. He threw it at Ting Ge's feet and said sarcastically, "This is your reward for taking care of my family."
Although Meirane comforted him and he apologized to Ting Ge, the necklace became Ting Ge's death.
The necklace was a gift from the dwarves to Ferragang 400 years ago. It was called the most beautiful necklace in the world.
The people in the world of "Lord of the Rings" had a strange weakness. They were obsessed with useless but beautiful treasures.
For example, the Arkan Diamond in "The Hobbit".
Ting Ge held the most beautiful diamond of the elves and the most beautiful necklace of the dwarves. He was so obsessed with them that he didn't even care about his beautiful Maian wife.
He asked the dwarves to help him set the diamond on the necklace. They combined to make the most dazzling jewelry in the world.
The dwarves succeeded. They were also fascinated. They lost their minds and stabbed Ting Ge to death.
It was crazy to kill someone in Ting Ge's palace and steal his treasures.
Most of the dwarves died in the pursuit of the elves. Only a few escaped back to their homes.
When they returned home, the dwarves changed their story. Ting Ge wanted to cheat them of the payment for making the gemstones, but he accused them of stealing the gemstones.
Therefore, the elves and dwarves fell out with each other.
Although the rational Halflings tried to persuade the dwarves that it was not worth it for a piece of broken stone, the war between the elves and dwarves broke out.
The dwarves did what Mirko wanted to do but couldn't. They washed Ting Ge's palace in blood.
Well, after Ting Ge died, Merian left Middle Earth and returned to Valinor. Merian, who protected Doriath, disappeared.
As the "Prince Consort" of Minni (with the right of inheritance), Baylon, who had retired, couldn't sit still. He led people to destroy the dwarves who robbed Ting Ge's palace and took back the "most beautiful diamond necklace in the world".
Mirko laughed. "That's exactly what I want to see! The plot will be even more exciting. "
He was not wrong.
Without Merian, who was the guardian of the country, Doriath had no ability to protect the Silmarillion.
In this bright dark age, there were too many jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards.
After Baylon and Lucian were resurrected, they became mortals with limited lifespans.
And mortals were not qualified to wear the Silmarillion.
Bathed in the light of the diamond, they aged faster and died not long after.
Their son inherited the throne of Doriath (Ting Ge's kingdom) and the gemstones. But less than two years later, the sons of Feino, driven by the "Nodo Oath", led people to wash Minni for the second time and killed all the male heirs of the Ting Ge family.
Baylon's grandsons all died, and only his granddaughter escaped with the Silmarillion.
For the first time, the seven sons of Feino also suffered losses. The third, fourth, and fifth died on the spot.
But they did not get the Silmarillion, so how could they give up?
Gondolin, Nargothrond, and Doriath were destroyed one after another. Mirko's army marched straight into the interior of Middle-earth and destroyed the last resistance force: Therdan's Port Kingdom of Faras.
There was no longer a peaceful place in Middle-earth. The elves only had two strongholds left, the Sirian Estuary near the sea and Therdan's Baral Island.
Baylon's granddaughter, Elwin, grew up at the Sirian Estuary with the Silmarillion and finally married the second half-elf, "Blessed" Earendil.
The remaining four sons of Feino once again killed their way to the "last sanctuary of the elves", which was the Sirian Estuary.
That day, the Eye of Angorian bloomed with a shockingly bright and bleak blood light.
The light even eclipsed the Silmarillion in Elwin's hand.
The sin of killing their own kin happened to the sons of Feino for the third time. They slaughtered all the rebels and forced Elwin to jump into the sea to commit suicide. Two of their own brothers died in battle again.
The seven sons of Feino were only left with the eldest and second.
It was so bleak.
At the same time, the Lord of Calamities, Moke Angorian, absorbed the power of sorrow.
"Hahaha, the elves and humans are completely finished! The elven civilization has completely collapsed. The elven race is on the verge of extinction, and the humans … "
Thinking of the humans, Mirko laughed proudly again. "Other than the Edenians, almost all the humans have surrendered to me. They worship me, not Manway and Yiru. I won, hahaha! "
If the story ended here, Mirko had indeed won, a complete victory.
He used facts to prove to the elves and humans that Villa had ruled on Nodo's elven fate back then: Mortals could never defeat Villa.
But Mirko was not the only Villa in the world. The third battle of the gods officially began.
When the elves and humans' representatives knelt in front of Manway to admit defeat and asked for forgiveness from Villa for their past arrogance and crimes, Mirko's end came.
