Lexikon. Hauptseite – Ardapedia. The Barrow-Downs. Saruman Tony Galuidi Saruman of Many Colors was a Maia, one of the angelic Ainur who served the godlike Valar in Aman. For many ages, Saruman served on the side of the Valar, who in turn served Eru, who the Elves say created all things. In the course of the events of the Third Age, Saruman's choices led to Darkness as his end, sharing the fate of Morgoth. It came to pass, after ages of tumult and war, that Angband was destroyed and the evil Vala Morgoth was at last sentenced to the void. His lieutenant, Sauron, who had begged of the Valar that he be spared, abused their mercy and returned to Darkness. After the fall of Sauron, in the great war of the Last Alliance between the kings of Men and of Elves, the Ruling Ring was lost and its master was a vanquished spirit.

The Valar, seeing that without intervention Sauron would enslave the lands in Darkness, sent the Istari, a powerful order of the Maiar who served them, to Middle-earth. They were known in Middle-earth as the Five Wizards. Hobbit Movie News and Information, The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien - TheOneRing.net - Forged by the Fans of J.R.R. Tolkien.
