Sauron ordered the destruction of the White Tree that stood in the Citadel, but Isildur of the Faithful stole past the guards and saved a scion of Nimloth. The oppression of the Faithful Númenóreans, who remained loyal to the Valar, turned to downright persecution, and a great temple to Morgoth was built in Armenelos. But when the fleet returned to Númenor with its prisoner, Sauron set about corrupting the King and his subjects, whispering into their ears lies about the Valar. Even the Faithful remembered with pride the majesty of Ar-Pharazôn, Tar-Calion the Golden, as he came out of the deeps of the Sea. The Dark Lord saw the futility of a war against the might of Númenor, and came before Ar-Pharazôn and humbled himself. Yet when Sauron claimed the title "King of Men" and assailed the Númenórean colonies, Ar-Pharazôn, the greatest and most powerful of the Númenórean kings yet, gathered his fleet and came to the Haven of Umbar, which was still held by the Númenóreans at the time. But in time there was strife in Númenor, and the Faithful in the north were set at odds with the King's Men, who served the kings of Númenor and were grown corrupt and hateful of the Valar.

The Númenóreans, however, were constantly assailed by the native peoples, who viewed them as invaders and fought in the name of Sauron against them. Pelargir upon Anduin would prove a base for Faithful influence on the shores of Middle-earth, which soon spread to the various colonies and havens in all the land from Lune to Pelargir. Harondor was also once a fiefdom of Gondor but now it is a contested land, disputed between the folk of Gondor and Harad.Īfter the War of the Elves and Sauron, the Númenóreans began to establish permanent settlements in Middle-earth.
