Kelvar and Olvar
Kelvar means ‘animals, living things that move’ and olvar ‘growing
things with roots in the earth’. When used together, these words denote
all the living things of Arda that were created by the Valar and the
Maiar.
Kili
One of the companions of Thorin Oakenshield and Bilbo Baggins in their
quest to the Lonely Mountain in the year 2951 of the Third Age. Was
slain in the Battle of Five Armies while he was standing guard over
the mortally wounded Thorin.
Khim
Son of Mim the petty-dwarf, slain by one of Turin’s outlaw band.
The King’s Men
Broadly, this term was applied to the ‘Numenoreans hostile to the Eldar
and Elendili’. Obviously, not one of the King’s Men escaped the Drowning
of Numenor, for they had been faithful to their King, Ar-Pharazon the
Golden.
Kuduk
A self-given name of the Hobbits who inhabited the Shire and Bree towards
the end of the Third Age.
