Seven, Valacirca also translates in Quenya to "Sickle of the Valar". The Valacirca was basically our Great Bear.

Gorlim son of Angrim told of the hidding place of Barahir.

He did this while in the custody of Sauron. He told of the hidding place in exchange for his freedom with his lost wife Eilinel.

Good guess, Lindolirian. Melian gave lembas to Beleg to aid him in his search for Turin.

Your go!

He rode north of the Inland Sea of Helcar and near the Orocarni when Nahar neighed because he heard the Elvish singing.
