In the years after the great gathering of [[Men]] in [[East Beleriand]] at the place called [[Estolad]], [[Malach Aradan]] led his followers away into the north and west, and settled in the distant, mist-shrouded land of [[Hithlum]]. Magor was Malach's son, and he too had a desire to wander: he led a part of his father's people away from Hithlum and southward down the [[Sirion|River Sirion]]. They settled among the southern foothills of the [[Ered Wethrin]], the "Mountains of Shadow" that formed the southern wall of Hithlum.
