N is for Nargothrond,
The fortress built by Finrod Felagund and afterwards destroyed by Glaurung, father of dragons. It was found by the advise of Elu Thingol after Finrod was filled with wonder of the greatness of Menegroth. Finrod got his second name, Felagund, from the dwarves who built Nargothrond with him. It means ' hewer of caves'.
