Hurin left Turin and his mother to go to battle against Morgoth's hosts, and at the Nirnaeth, he and thousands of men and elves were slaughtered by the armies of Angband.

2. Ulmo somehow speaks to Ecthelion, Lord of the Fountains.

Answer: True

Tuor is the actual person who talks to him, but it is not Tuor himself who is speaking. Ecthelion, Lord of the Fountains, is taken aback when Tuor speaks with such power and grandeur. Although through Tuor's body, Ulmo does speek to Ecthelion at the Steel Gate of Gondolin.

3. Which two brothers held the northern border of Dorthonion before they were killed?

Answer: Angrod and Aegnor

8. Sauron was a Maia of whom?
