Everything about Arda totally explained
Arda Marred is the name given to the world as it is: the world after the wars of the Valar and Melkor, and the dispersing of Melkor's
fëa in the entire world. It is this world from which are formed the
hröa of the
Children of Ilúvatar, and therefore it's at times a cruel and evil world with plagues, extreme colds, heat, and other concepts which don't exist in Arda Unmarred.
Arda Marred also broke the design of Elvish immortality: in Arda Marred Elves slowly fade, until at last they're naught but wraiths. Only in Valinor was this fading delayed, which is one reason all Elves had no choice but to go to Valinor in the end. One of the special abilities of the
Rings of Power was that they could delay time, and as such were used by
Elrond and
Galadriel to preserve their realms. After the loss of the
One Ring the Elves had no choice left and therefore in the
Fourth Age the last Eldar left for Valinor.
Arda Healed
Arda Healed is Arda Marred restored: it'll be like Arda Unmarred but better, since it'll also incorporate all the good things of Arda Marred. Arda Healed will be created after the
Dagor Dagorath, when
Morgoth will be slain, and the world broken. A new world will be created then, which will be Arda Healed.
