And then they died.
Well, most of them died, except for Maglor. If he died later, i don´t know.
Quote:
And it is told of Maglor that he could not endure the pain with which the Silmaril tormented him; and he cast it at last into the Sea, and thereafter he wandered ever upon the shores, singing in pain and regret beside the waves. For Maglor was mighty among the singers of old, named only after Daeron of Doriath; but he came never back among the people of the Elves.

but he had great wisdom in some areas. Feanor made the jewels, Celebrimbor, his last descendant, helped make those rings
You´re right that he had great skill, but i wouldn´t called it wisdom. He was a genius, plain and simple.

Does anyone else feel sorry for Maehdros?
I think that Maedhros is a fascinating character. To me, he was trapped by the circumstances. The oath, made him vulnerable to evil, yet he seemed always in a strugle to do what´s right. The friendship of Fingon, the Nirnaeth Arnoediad. To me he was one of the best.
I guess you can say that by my name.
