I have just reread the Silmarillion and i got to the part in the book where Tar-Palantir becomes king
Its said that he repented of his fathers sins and started honouring Eru again. He tried his best to to change the ways of his people who had become more like his brother. Why did the valar forsake him and the faithful that remained ever friends of the Eldar and in awe of the Powers. I know that they had tried to convice the Numenorians with messengers years before of why they cannot go to the undying lands, but since then they had given up. This is how it always seems to be, whenever men make a mistake they are totally forsaken for the time. Although i suppose this ws the best thing to do, the Valar couldn't force men to love them again, they couldn't force them to stop fighting wars for land in ME. If the Vala weren't going to do anything, i wish that a messenger had at least told the king that things would eventually be alright, letting him at least die in peace instead of all upset. And if they had interfered at this point and succeeded the great deeds of The war of the Ring would never have come to pass.
