| | Encyclopedia of Arda: Meneldil |
 | | We are told that Meneldil was notdisappointed to see the High King and his sons leave for the North, and that he hoped to rule Gondor himself for a long time. | | | We know that Meneldil was a shrewd and intelligent man, and it seems more than plausible that he simply invented this story of Isildur's 'relinquishing' Gondor to his rule. | | | If Meneldil was originally fourth in line to the throne, then the disappearance of his elder siblings, combined with his known ambitious character, might even lead us to suspect dark deeds in Gondor's earliest history! |

| | While the three rings of the Elven kings seem to have possessed powers not exclusively related to their respective elements, they indeed provide one of the best indications that Tolkien himself might have thought of an elemental background for at least some of the magic he describes in his writings. | | | For ease of reference, the following table gives both the common Quenya and Sindarin names of the above described disciplines or "ways" of magic, together with their English translation. | | | 1) is assumed to have been taken from the treatise "On Magic," written by the scholar Meneldil of Minas Ithil, who lived during the reign of King Eärnil II. |

| | Meneldil kept Gondor for his own heirs, leaving the northern kingdom of Arnor to fragment and dissolve in the hands of Isildur's descendants. | | | When Elendil and Anarion both died in the Last Alliance, Isildur inherited not only Gondor but also his father's northern kingdom of Arnor, and he placed the south in the safekeeping of Anarion's son Meneldil. | | | It can be argued that Isildur planned to consolidate both kingdoms; unfortunately, he died en route to Arnor along with his three eldest sons. |
