: I'm speculating a little here, but as far as I know Tolkien : does not specifically specify their fate. I always assumed : they faded in power over time and hid away mostly (although : most were never as powerful as the high elves anyway) and : possibly became the sprites of modern fairy tales.Bill Staples posted some of the information. The Silvan Elves were partially (or wholly, depending on which sources you accept) Avarin in origin. Many Avari actually settled in Eriador and Beleriand, however, and they probably eventually sailed over Sea. The invitation to do so was extended to ALL Elves a second time at the end of the First Age.
