Why did Frodo go to the Undying Lands in the end?
The only way for Frodo to find peace was for him to leave Middle-earth and head to the Undying Lands, in the hopes that this mystical realm could finally heal his injuries forever.
Why do the Elves leave at the end of The Lord of the Rings?
ANSWER: The Elves were compelled to leave Middle-earth by a spiritual summons of the Valar, calling them to their ultimate destinies within Time and Space. The Valar knew there would be strife between the Elder Children (the Elves) and the Younger Children (Men) and Adopted Children (Dwarves) of Iluvatar.
Why did the Elves accept the rings from Sauron?
The rings were given to men, elves and dwarves by Sauron because he wanted to have control over them using one master ring which he forged himself.
Why did the Elves and Gandalf leave Middle-earth?
The reason why Gandalf (and the rest of the Istari, for that matter) was chosen to depart the West for Middle Earth was accomplished; the Ring was destroyed and so was the threat of Sauron. With his purpose completed, he was free to return a hero to the undying West.
Are the Elves in LOTR immortal?
Elves are immortal, and remain unwearied with age. They can recover from wounds which would be fatal to a Man, but can be killed in battle. Spirits of dead Elves go to the Halls of Mandos in Valinor.
Can Elves resist the One Ring?
Elves are not particularly resistant to the temptation; it is just that no elf actually possessed the ring. By your logic we could assume that Dwarves are resistant to the ring, because the only dwarf who was near the ring for a long time was Gimli and he was never tempted either.
Why did Aragorn not go to the undying lands?
Because he had a job to do. Aragorn couldn’t really afford to go to Valinor. The race of Men wasn’t fading away like the Elves, quite the opposite. The time of the Elves(and “magic”) was over and it was the Men’s turn to “take care” of Middle-earth.
