Spyhill, Amon Ethir, was raised a league east of Nargothrond. It was here that Glaurung hypnotized/mesmerized/enchanted/ Nienor, erasing her memory.

Correct. Carry on.

Who and how did Sauron trick into betraying Barahir?

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 07-18-2005, 01:54 PM

Gorlim Angrimson, one of Barahir`s twelve men in Dorthonion. Orcs came and slew them them all, save Beren, who was out spying. The cut off Barahir's ring hand, as proof of their success.

Yes, it was Gorlim who betrayed Barahir, but maybe I wasn't clear enough in my question when it concerns the how. Let me rephrase it: How did Sauron trick Gorlim into betraying Barahir? You have the following events down fine, but I wanted the events that caused it. You're halfway there, Celebriel.

He pretented to be Gorlim's wife and told him that if he were to betray Barahir he would be taken to her. Which happened by killing him.

Yep. Your turn.
