Saeros, it is!

Quote:

Now one there was in Doriath, of the people of the Nandor, high in the counsels of the King; Saeros was his name. . . [H]e taunted him. . .Then Turin in great anger took up a drinking-vessel, and cast it at Saeros; and he was grievously hurt (perhaps broken teeth?).

*************

Then Saeros fleeing in terror before him fell into the chasm of a stream, and his body was broken (body including neck?) on a great rock in the water.

-From the Tale of Turin Turambar, modifications by, of course, yours truly.

My copy of UT is at my parents house. A serious impediment for me.
