The Chaining of Melko is the fourth chapter of The Book of Lost Tales Part One.
Synopsis
Eriol talked with Vairë about Timpinen or Tinfang Warble. The man learnt that Tinfang's music caused longing that only the drink limpë could healed, and which only queen Meril could give it. Littleheart led Eriol to Meril but she refused to give him limpë immediately as first he had to learn more. She started a tale about times when Melko was imprisoned.
Palúrien Yavanna went to the dark lands and created mosses, ferns, and strange creatures and later, with the help of Oromë, pine woods. This made Melko angry, for he treated the world as his domain, therefore he brought upon the earth fire and earthquakes. This in turn incited the Valar to assault him.
After a council, in which even Ulmo took part, Aulë made tilkal - from copper, silver, tin, plumb, iron, and gold - a new seventh metal, and from this material he made chains, called Angaino, with two manacles Vorotemnar and four fetters Ilterendi. The Valar decided arrest Melko through deception rather than in open war, so they asked him to move to Valinor as the greatest Valar. They came to Melko in Utumna, Tulkas wearing Angaino, but Tulkas and Aulë chained him with this chain before he made Manwë kneel. Aulë put Vorotemnar on the Melko's hands and two Ilterendi on each of his ankles.
Afterwards, Tulkas and Ulmo blocked Utumna forever. Melko was sentenced for three centuries in the dungeons of Mandos and four centuries in service for Tulkas. During Melko's imprisonment, more living beings - e.g. birds, little animals and fish - appeared.
