Nirwa's chamber

Firstly, I’m sorry for not responding to threads for so long. The truth is that I feel insecure and don’t feel competent enough to roleplay a character from Tolkien’s world. I just feel that what I write is not enough. That being said, I decided to put roleplay on hiatus for now and kind of return to the roots of this blog. 

This account will temporarily become a place for my drawings, drabbles, character-related discussion, roblogged stuff etc. I will also talk about my other AUs for Nirwa, especially modern verse.  Ask box, as always, is open and I will gladly answer any questions Nirwa-related or not. :) I will also lurk around tumblr sending memes.

Melkor is chaos, the origin of Evil, the embodiment of Evil. 

But what is his goal in the first place ? It is said he wanted to rule over Arda, he called himself the Master of the fates of Arda, though Melkor is not stupid, and he perfectly knew Eru was the only real master, as long as his blessing was upon Arda. If he wanted to rule, Melkor had to get rid of this blessing, in order to have a complete free-will, not only for himself, but for Arda. Also, maybe he wanted to prove that he and Arda can exist without Eru’s intervetion. 

And that’s when this thought appeared : He wants to annihilate Eru’s will,     to free Arda from Eru.

I like to think that Melkor knew what would happen if he stole the Silmarils. He  knew Fëanor would go after him and leave Valinor. 

And when you think about it, he told the Noldor that the Valar were imprisoning them in Valinor. And perhaps Melkor himself believed in these words. He was convinced that the Eldar were his kin’s ‘servants’. We can imagine, besides the canon facts, that he really wanted to free them from Valinor. Not because he cared about them, but to prove that all the Children – not only the ones who stayed in Middle Earth - could live without the control of Manwë and through him, Eru. 

ofc, if Eru’s will is annihilated, his own will would rule instead.

So he made up his plan. First  part of the plan : talking to the Noldor, telling them that they are the Valar’s slaves. → Many of them begin to believe his words, now he must give them the push to actually do something. Second part of the plan :  destroying the lamps. Since the light comes from Eru, he take Eru’s blessing from Aman, and somehow, prove that Arda can live without Eru’s power. Third part of the plan → Stealing the Silmarils because he knew Fëanor wouldn’t need more than this to leave Valinor, run after him and free his people. Was the murder of Finwë a part of this plan? Possibly, but it could also be a terrible accident. Finwë was there, Melkor had to get rid of any person that would be between him and his goal. In any case, it helped Melkor’s plan.

The Noldor leave Valinor, Fëanor and his sons officially reject the Ainur, now they have to survive without any kind of blessing, and they join the elves who didn’t leave Middle Earth. Melkor’s plan is achieved (Partly achieved at least, since they swore in Eru’s name… )

They are free from the Valar, and through them from Eru, and Melkor can now take this mighty race under his own will. Or at least he will try.

He wants to take Eru’s place by becoming the one who would rule over the Children, in a land free from Iluvatar’s will. 

Another thing, concerning the jewels! As long as Melkor keep the Silmarils, he thinks he’s the one who will rule in Eru’s place, the only one who possesses light. They are the proof he is his own master who lives and acts independently of Iluvatar’s powers. If he is his own master, then he can become the only master of the all other beings, and in the case of the Noldorin race, not only the master but also the liberator.

He only hopes it was not a part of Eru’s plans.

It’s actually not in any of the book. The name “Mairon was only mentioned once, and in probably the most obscure location (which is why you didn’t find it, and I never would have without some google-fu) - a note on one of the essays published in the journal Parma Eldalamberon:
