Makes me think of Ar-Pharazon's capture of Sauron.

If this isn't it, then it still doesn't ring a bell.

One more hint, please?

When forbidding anyone from going in, he was a king's cousin.

When he allowed someone to do so, he was himself a king.

Sounds like one of Gondorian or Numenorean Kings.....but I can't find any who fit all the hints.....

I think I found him. Dain Ironfoot. He dissuaded his cousin from going into Moria on his own.

That's the chap. More specifically, he said that no dwarf should enter Moria, because he alone had seen what waited within - Durin's Bane.

90 years later, he let Balin lead an expedition there. Dude had a very bad grasp of the lifespan of Balrogs.

Over to you.
