(And I'll also admit I am deceiving you a bit here, but if anyone could see through my deception, it'd be you, Huinesoron.)

I had actually forgotten that it was bad guys...

If you're being deceptive, I'm going to go with 'He didn't'.

Oh, he died all right.

Alright then, he died of a broken heart.

Have no idea who he is, other than he does not sound Third Age to me, so it's hard to answer your questions about him without looking up the name.

Well, I guess you could say he did, but the answer is factually incorrect.

If so, did he die after a wrench? Specifically, this wrench? And a topple off the cliff that followed?

Yes and no.

I am intrigued to see that the standalone Fall of Gondolin indexes 'Moeleg' as the Sindarin form of 'Melkor'. Could be the same name in a different reading, which I think means that, per the Second Prophecy of Mandos, he dies from an overdose of Turin.
