There was now no turning back. They had already destroyed the Two Trees and now covered in a web of darkness they made their way to Formenos. Melkor and Ungoliant were on a mission: to steal the Silmarils of Fëanor. With Fëanor back in Valmar, it would be all too easy to kill Finwë and take the jewels for himself.

Approaching the gates of Formenos, Melkor had one plan: kill Finwë, take the Silmarils and the rest of the gems of Fëanor, and flee Valinor forever. Finwë seeing the invasion, locked the doors of the fortress to attempt to keep Melkor out, but it was no use. Melkor managed to break through and with one swift blow killed the High King.

With Finwë now out of the way, Melkor could take the great jewels for himself. He had succeeded; the Silmarils were now his for the taking. Picking them up, Melkor tucked them away and motioned for Ungoliant to follow. With a snarl, he and Ungoliant fled Formenos and Valinor with the treasures of Fëanor in hand.
