What happened to the Dwarves in the Third Age?
Third Age. In 1980 of the Third Age, after centuries of greedy digging for mithril and other minerals, the Dwarves woke a Balrog that was sleeping in the deeps of the Misty Mountains since the First Age. The Dwarves fled Khazad-dûm, which from then on was called Moria, which means “Black pit”.

What happens to the Dwarves in the 4th Age?

What happened to Middle-Earth after the ring was destroyed?
When the One Ring was destroyed, this body faded away, leaving only a malicious spirit in its place. With the One Ring destroyed, Sauron would never be able to take a physical form again. Like Saruman, he would be forced to wander Middle-Earth as a spirit who could no longer affect the living world.

How did Middle-Earth end?
The published Silmarillion ends with the recounting of the voyage of Eärendil the Mariner, but this is due to an editorial decision by Christopher Tolkien. The Silmarillion as Tolkien originally wrote it ends with a prophecy by Mandos about the Dagor Dagorath, often referred to as “The End”.
Did the Dwarves go extinct?
They were not extinct. There were well-established populations in the Ered Luin, the Iron Hills, and Erebor. There may have been Dwarves living farther East as well, descendants of Dwarves who didn’t come into the tales of the First Age.
