Because he wandered through the Void in an attempt to find and use the Flame Imperishable, the source of Ilúvatar's creative activity, Melkor developed ideas unlike those of the other Ainur. The most powerful of the Ainur that Ilúvatar created was a spirit known as Melkor. One day, according to a prophecy, Morgoth will rise again in great wrath, but he will be destroyed in the Dagor Dagorath. Eventually, Morgoth was bound in chains by the Valar and thrown into the Void, leaving the permanent damage his evils had done, and his former lieutenant Sauron, to trouble the world. His theft of the Silmarils and wars against Elves and Men encompassed much of the history of the First Age. Morgoth corrupted many of the Ainur to his service, fought the Valar, and marred Arda. He fell from glory when he disrupted the Music of the Ainur and defied the will of Ilúvatar. Morgoth, also known as Melkor, was the greatest of the Ainur. " And he descended upon Arda in power and majesty greater than any other of the Valar, as a mountain that wades in the sea and has its head above the clouds and is clad in ice and crowned with smoke and fire and the light of the eyes of Melkor was like a flame that withers with heat and pierces with a deadly cold." ― The Silmarillion, " Ainulindalë" This article or section needs more/new/more-detailed sources to conform to a higher standard and to provide proof for claims made.
