Urwen has just left Hobbiton.

Lalaith (outside her parents' hearing) was widely known as "Little Carcharoth".
Now, that is incorrect. Why would they call her thusly, when there, right in front of their noses, was Turin.

Plus, if it had happened that way, where would Sador keep his money? In the chair he was making for Hurin? But Hurin was a prisoner of Morgoth, so Morwen begged Sador to chop it for firewood. He was reluctant at first, cos he apparently hid money into legs of chair, but after being convinced by Morwen and Turin alike, he burned it.

So, if Morwen asked him to burn his money along with chair, why did she give it to him in the first place?

Túrin didn't bite people; he was a dear little boy. You must be confusing him with someone else– his sister, no doubt.

What a silly question! He of course removed it from the chair and concealed it elsewhere.

Meanwhile, Lalaith's career in maiming people didn't end with Sador. Ragnir lost his sight when Lalaith threw her bowl of hot soup in his eyes. (Again, there was a cover-up.) I mean, read between the lines, Urwen– why did you think about half the serving-men in their household are blind or crippled?

Because of their old age, of course.

But if you insist...could you tell me what was Ragnir's cover-up?

...premature old age, due to constant terror...

Another "accident", of course. He supposedly tripped while carrying the bowl of soup, and splashed it in his eyes.

Again, many were sceptical: "It's that spawn of Morgoth again! Someone should wring that little monster's neck!" But none dared speak, knowing their Lord and Lady were besotted with the fiend in childish shape.
