Hildórien was the land in the far east of Middle-earth in which the first Men or Hildor awoke near the end of the First Age.
It was said among the Elves that Morgoth went there and put a darkness in the hearts of the Men. Some Men, who were at war with those who fell under the Shadow, fled Hildórien seeking the Light of the West.
Geography
Hildorien was far to the east of Cuiviénen, where the first Elves awoke. It may have been located on Middle-earth's shore with the East Sea and surrounded by the Mountains of the Wind.
