 | | Then the Elves smote upon the gates of Angband, and the challenge of their trumpets shook the towers of Thangorodrim; and Maedhros heard them amid his torment and cried aloud, but his voice was lost in the echoes of the stone. | | | Now Fingolfin too made his dwellings at the North end of the Lake of Mithrim and there was no love lost between his folks and the Feanorians. | | | There Maedhros in time was healed; for the fire of life was hot within him, and his strength was of the ancient world, such as those possessed who were nurtured in Valinor. |

| | By this act of valour, Fingon won great praise, and Maedhros begged Fingolfin for forgiveness; and as a result of Fingon's heroics, the hatred between the two houses was, for the time being, assuaged. | | | Sometime soon after, the host of Fingolfin, having crossed the Grinding Ice, marched into Middle-earth; as the Sun first rose from the West, Fingolfin come into Mithrim. | | | His sons however rescued him at this moment and began to take him to Mithrim, but the fiery spirit of Fëanor left his body while they were near Eithel Sirion. |
