Fanwork Notes

In my headcanon, the Awakening of Men at the time of the Rising of the Sun and Moon was figurative, more like a renaissance, or the advancements that might occur with the invention of the wheel or agriculture (or the sudden appearance of a pair of glaring balls of light in the sky). Although they had been around long before, while the plants and animals lay dormant under the influence of the Sleep of Yavanna, the pace of life for Men had probably been slow and simple. With the Second Spring of Arda, then “new things, devised long ages before in the thought of Yavanna and sown as seed in the dark, came at last to their budding and their bloom. West, North, and South the children of Men spread and wandered, and their joy was the joy of the morning before the dew is dry, when every leaf is green.”
~from The Silmarillion, Chapter 12: Of Men
