Balrogs had not been seen in ME in almost a whole age so many of the races except the elves and the dwarves (though they new not that it was a balrog) had forgotton the balrogs.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all that wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
