In ancient days, he was the Vala who came most often to Middle-earth to hunt the monsters of Melkor, and legend said that he brought with him certain fabulous creatures.

Notes 1 The name seems to derive from an old form Béaming, which is not a direct translation of the name Oromë, but rather of one of the Vala's titles, specifically Aldaron, 'Lord of Trees'.
