this is what i have been wondering a long time now, but could never find an answer to: how did history continue after the destruction of the One Ring and the return of the blood of Numenorian kings to Gondor? did the elves really leave the coasts of Middle-Earth? or did they stay there, as they had done several times before, ignoring the offer and even the order of the Valar? did the world evolve into a completely human (and thus very poor) society? or is there still some magic in it, hidden in deep and unseen places?
