Biography

Sagrúthiel was born in Almárëa in Valinor in the year 1208 of the Years of the Trees. She lived in Almárëa with her mother Eltariel.

She, like her nine sisters, who stayed in Almárëa beneath the Halls of Varda, spend her time with her mother and very often visited Varda, Yavanna, Estë and Irmo, Vairë and Mandos.

Sagrúthiel, along with her nine sisters, who stayed in Almárëa, participated in every council of the Valar in Valmar. Therefore, they are the second wisest Elves in Arda (wisest beign their mother Eltariel).

Like all the Vanyar, she took part in the downfall of Morgoth, by participating in the War of Wrath in the First Age. After the War, she returned to Valinor with the other Vanyar and remained there permanently.

Unlike the others who were attracted to the sea or the building and forging of things, the Vanyar culture seemed to revolve about Valar and Valinor. This is probably the reason why they choose to stay in Valinor proper centered around Taniquetil, the seat of the rulers of Arda, and loved the light of Valinor best of all the other places in Aman and the wisdom of the Valar, and why they were favored by Varda, Yavanna, Uinen and other Valar and Maiar. Vanyar have always distrusted Melkor and knew his mind.
