	[[Tuor]] was the son of [[Rían]] and [[Huor]], born in the year of the battle [[Nirnaeth Arnoediad]]. Upon finding the news of her husband's death, followed closely by her own, Rían left Tuor in the care of the [[Sindar]] of [[Mithrim]], specifically [[Annael]] who became his foster-father. Lead by him, a small group seeked refuge from the [[Easterlings]] in the caves of [[Androth]], where Tuor grew until he was 16, learning the elven lore and the mastering of weapons.
