Amandil
the lord of Andúnië; the father of Elendil
Name and Story
Amandil was the last of the lords of Andúnië before the Drowning: the father of Elendil and the chief of the The Faithful in the years when Sauron’s sway over Númenor was swelling. Foreseeing the doom, Amandil — the Akallabêth says — was moved to sail westward seeking pardon from the Valar,; he departed on a voyage from which he never returned (and by whose counsel and memory Elendil prepared the nine ships of escape). He is the “Abraham” figure of the remnant’s flight.
