	Fëanor was furious at Melkor and at the Valar's perceived desire to take the gems for their own purposes, and, swearing that he and his sons would not rest until the Silmarils were recovered, he led the Ñoldor back to Middle-earth. His flight, which began the [[First Age]] of Middle-earth, led to no end of grief for the Elves and eventually for the [[Men]] of Middle-earth. Five major battles were fought in [[Beleriand]], but ultimately the Ñoldor failed.

−	One of the Silmarils was recovered by [[Beren]] and [[Lúthien]] through great peril and loss. This gem was stored inside the dwarven pendant [[Nauglamir]] by order of [[Thingol]], and some time later it was taken by [[Eärendil]] to the Valar in the West as a token of repentance. The Valar then set this Silmaril as a ~~star~~. The other two gems remained in Morgoth's hands, and were taken from him only at the end of the [[War of Wrath]]. However, soon afterwards, they were stolen by Fëanor's two surviving sons [[Maedhros]] and [[Maglor]]. The jewels burned their hands, in refusal of their rights of possession, as they had burned Morgoth's hands many years before. In agony, Maedhros threw himself and his Silmaril into a fiery pit, and Maglor threw his into the sea. Thus the Silmarils remained in all three elements of Arda -- in the sky, soil and water.	+	One of the Silmarils was recovered by [[Beren]] and [[Lúthien]] through great peril and loss.
