In briefanswer capsule

Alqualondë, Swan-haven and chief city of the Teleri in Aman, stood on Eldamar’s shore under prince Olwë. Fëanor sought ships for the Noldor’s departure, yet the Teleri would neither lend craft nor aid construction contrary to the Valar. They chose to turn kinsfolk aside rather than join them, wishing only those beaches and Olwë’s rule. He had never heeded Morgoth nor received him, trusting Ulmo and the greater Powers to mend the harm.
