- The Battle of the Powers was the last great battle of the War for Sake of the Elves in which the forces of the Valar defeated Melkor's forces on the fields of Middle-earth and forced them to retreat into Utumno. The ensuing siege was very costly for the Valar, but their forces finally overcame Melkor's defenses and captured him.
