5. Whose words caused the policy of stealth in Nargothrond?

I know it's one of the seven brothers......so I'll say Celegorm, because I'm pretty sure it's him.

when his brother ceased did then begin

and such a spell he on them binds
that never again till Turin's day
would Gnome of Narog in array
of open battle go to war...
