<div>'''Fornost Erain''' ([[Sindarin]] 'Northern-fortress of the Kings' from ''for(n)'' (north) ''ost'' (fortress); "Norbury of the Kings" in [[Westron]]) was a city of [[Eriador]] in the north of [[Middle-earth]]. It was located at the south end of the North Downs, about 100 [[Númenórean]] miles north of [[Bree]]; after Fornost Erain was abandoned, the site became known as '''Deadman's Dike''', visited only by Rangers. At the time when ''The Lord of The Rings'' is set, Fornost had been abandoned for "nearly a thousand years, and even the ruins of Kings' Norbury were covered with grass".<br />
<br />
It is not known when Fornost was founded or when the kings of [[Arnor]] moved there from [[Annúminas]], but it is known that the kings moved to Fornost some time before [[Third Age|T.A.]] 861, when King [[Eärendur]] died, and Arnor was divided into three kingdoms with Fornost the capital of the greatest kingdom, [[Arthedain]].<br />
<br />
In T.A. 1974, Arthedain was overrun by the forces of [[Angmar]], they captured Fornost, and King [[Arvedui]] fled into the northern wastes and was lost in the Ice Bay of [[Forochel]]. In the following year, a fleet from [[Gondor]] led by [[Eärnur]] landed at [[Mithlond]], fought the [[Witch-king of Angmar]] in the plains west of Fornost, and defeated him and his armies, although the Witch-king himself escaped.<br />
<br />
After King Elessar reunited the kingdoms of Gondor and Arnor, he had the city rebuilt and made a great city where Men dwelt once again.<br />

<div>'''Adanel''' was a Wise-woman from the [[House of Marach]], a daughter of [[Malach]] and [[Meldis]], and older sister of [[Magor]] (Adanel had many other brothers and sisters as well, and they also might have been younger than she). <br />
<br />
She was the mother of five children, of whom the last was [[Beren son of Belemir|Beren]], who was the grandfather of his great namesake, [[Beren Erchamion]].<br />
<br />
The Wise of the People of [[Marach]] were the only [[Men]] to preserve the tale of their original sin, when, soon after their awakening, the [[Men]] chose to worship [[Melkor]] instead of [[Eru]]. Adanel told this tale (called the ''[[Tale of Adanel]]'' in ''[[Morgoth's Ring]]'') to [[Andreth]] of the [[House of B</div>203.162.27.93
