	Since its foundation by [[Finrod]], the [[Elves of Nargothrond]] had pursued a secretive war against [[Morgoth]], hunting their enemies by stealth and ambush rather than going to open war. When [[Túrin]] was led there by [[Gwindor]], though, he counselled a different strategy to [[Orodreth]], who had by that time succeeded his brother Finrod as King in Nargothrond. Orodreth therefore built a bridge from his doors across the [[Narog]], and went to open war with Morgoth.

	The army of Nargothrond went out to meet Glaurung on the field of [[Tumhalad]], some miles north of the citadel.
