Year of the Trees 1000
From Tolkien Gateway
Year of the Trees 1000 (abbreviated to Y.T. 1000) is the 1000th year of the Trees of Arda. Year of the Trees 1000 was also V.Y. 4500 in Valian Years.
Notable events in this year include:
- The Valar hold council, for Yavanna and Oromë report that Melkor might rise once more in power. They discuss the forthcomingness of the Children of Ilúvatar and whether to bring light to Middle-earth.[1]
- Over the next fifty years, Varda uses the light from Telperion to fashion new stars, and organize them (and those already wrought) into constellations. The greatest of these constellations was the Menelmacar.[1]
