'''Eithel Ivrin''' was the springs that fed a lakeland at the feet of the [[Ered Wethrin]], the [[Ered Wethrin|Mountains of Shadow]] on the northern borders of [[Beleriand]]. Even into the early [[First Age]], [[Ulmo]] himself guarded the springs, so that they remained unsullied and undefiled. It was here that [[Gwindor]] brought [[Túrin]] after he had mistakenly slain his friend [[Beleg]], and the pure waters of [[Ivrin]] healed him of the madness of his grief.

The springs did not remain inviolate for all time. As the [[First Age]] drew on, Ulmo's powers were withdrawn from the north and [[Morgoth]]'s strength grew. When [[Glaurung]] the Dragon passed by the [[Pools of Ivrin]] on his journey to attack [[Nargothrond]], he destroyed their crystal purity forever.
