Dark ThroneThe seat of the Dark LordThe seat and centre of power of the Dark Lord Morgoth, in the deepest of the pits of Angband. It stood in a hall lit by fire, with walls adorned by weaponry and machines of torture. Though the throne is never described in detail, it was clearly large in scale, and possibly vast: Beren was able to hide beneath it when he entered Angband with Lúthien, and when Lúthien's soothing song caused Morgoth to fall from his throne in slumber, the sound of his fall was compared with a crash of thunder. A second Dark Throne was occupied by Sauron in the Second Age, a throne that finds a mention in the rhyme of the Rings of Power: 'One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne'.3 That throne must have been destroyed at the end of the Second Age when Barad-dûr was razed, but we're told of yet another throne of Sauron that he occupied during the War of the Ring at the end of the Third Age.
