waiting-for-meaning:Gondolin by ~FelicheGondolin was a hidden city of the elves located in about the middle of the Beleriand in Middle-earth. It was founded byTurgon the Wise, a Ñoldorin lord in the early First Age. It endured the longest of all the Ñoldorin kingdoms in exile, lasting nearly four-hundred years.J.R.R. Tolkien actually began writing the story that would become “The Fall of Gondolin” in 1917 in an army barracks on the back of a sheet of military marching music. It is more or less the first traceable story he wrote down on paper about the Middle-earth legendarium. -- source link
