 | | Even many of the incomplete chronicles deal with events and people in Hithlum, and yet no echo of this storied dominion of the Elves is heard in the nostalgic passages of Tolkien's best-known books where are mentioned Gondolin, Doriath, and Beleriand. |  | | The Sindar there wove grey clothing, probably very similar to the grey cloaks that the Elves of Lórien gave to Aragorn and his companions. |  | | Tolkien revised his dates extensively, and the best records come from works published in Morgoth's Ring and The War of the Jewels. |

 | | Their arms were scattered, and their league broken; and they took to a wild and woodland life beneath the feet of Ered Lindon, mingling with the Green-elves of Ossiriand, bereft of their power and glory of old. |  | | A man of the noble house of Hador known to the refugees at Hamed-Harend only as “Heir” gave them inspiration by making it known that he was enlisting the aid of guards for a flight across the treacherous mountains, and they hastened to join him. |  | | His knowledge of the north was only through tales told to him by Dursay in his youth, and he had unknowingly made his journey much longer by having to cross the perilous mountains twice before he finally entered into the lands of Hithlum and Dor-Lómin. |

| | Do Balrogs have wings, and can they fly? (The Truth About Balrogs, Vol. 6) |
 | | In the absence of outside confirmation the opposing view (that this passage indicates that the Balrogs 'arose' from their long wait or the 'vaults far beneath Angband', traveled very quickly through Hithlum and arrived in Lammoth wrapped in their flames) is equally reasonable. |  | | The equally valid counter-argument is that Tolkien was using these terms as imagery to poetically describe the swiftness of the Balrogs' travel. |  | | With their whips of flame they smote her webs asunder..." |

 | | We find in The History of Middle Earth and in the later Quenta Silmarillion these words: |  | | The idea of horsemen moving as though they were in flight is not a new one in literature, and the metaphor demonstrates the zealous speeds with which the horsemen rode, as if some force was driving them. |  | | In the passage from the Dagor Bragollach, Tolkien says, "
rivers of flame ran down swifter than Balrogs
." Many have waved their flags and pointed to the word "ran," but as with the Hithlum passage, Tolkien is trying to emphasize the speed of the river, not the running nature. |
