Ó
Enter, the Race of Men. You know, Gondor and Arnor, Aragorn, Rohirrim, and all those lovely, normal-sized people with non-pointy ears? Yeah, them. The second race to be ever created, Men have borne many names throughout the ages of Middle-earth. Among these would be Atani (Second People), Hildor (Aftercomers), and Firimar (Mortals). Though not as hardy as the dwarves, and susceptible to disease and old age unlike the elves, Men do bear the so-called gift to their race. This gift is the ability to be released from Arda upon death, and journey to a world which even the mighty Valar have no knowledge of.
It has been whispered that the Elves secretly envy this trait, as unlike Men, their souls are bound to the world even after their bodies are destroyed, and it is their fate to wait until the world's end before they are released.
What IS known however, is that because of their affinity with mortality and the knowledge that they only have a short while to spend among the living, Men are prompted to perform great feats and acts of courage. These feats, ironically, grant them immortality as the tales of their courage and valor are passed on from generation to generation, from bard to audience, and from father to son.
Such is the fate of Men.
