Dagor Bragollach

FA 455

.

The Battle of Sudden Flame, also known as Dagor Bragollach, was a land engagement during the Wars of Beleriand. The battle ended the four-hundred year long Siege of Angband and led to the ruin of much of Dorthonion.

Morgoth sent rivers of fire which engulfed the plain of Ard-galen. What was once grassy and fertile became the dry desert of Anfauglith. With the fire and smoke came confusion and disarray among the defenders, mostly elves and Edain. The dragon Glaurung led Morgoth’s armies alongside numerous Balrogs and they annihilated the league of the Noldor. Though the league suffered many casualties, they would continue to fight and eventually expel Morgoth from Arda.

Quick build while on break. Have wanted to make this for quite some time and definitely plan to expand it. Was inspired by the Rings of Power intro sequence which shows the death of Finrod.
