"But wrathful were the Gods of old And broke the Men that once were bold. The Earth was rent and Seas towered to the sky: Numenor was drowned and heard not its maidens cry. The Sea arose in frightening might And waves that looked like endless night. The mountains fell and towers broke And thus the mind of Iluvatar spoke."- Downfall of Númenor - Silmarillion - J.R.R. Tolkien -
