King Sheave is a character in J.R.R. Tolkien's "The Lost Road." He is mentioned in a scene where Ælfwine, a mariner, tells the story of King Sheave, who was found as a boy in an empty ship coming from the west. He became a king in the North and ruled for many years before sailing away at the end of his life.[1]
