What was the actual End?

[Mithadan]

The tale woven by Galorme is, as was said, a combination of versions of the Dagor Dagorath crafted by Tolkien at various times. Some have suggested that JRRT abandoned the idea completely in favor of Middle Earth becoming our world after the departure of the Elves. Others say that the concept of a Battle to End All Battles is consistent not only with Judeo-Christian beliefs but the beliefs of other religons and that even though Middle Earth becomes Earth, that Tolkien still held to the idea as woven into present day myths.
