Among the Teleri, Lenwë of Olwë's rearmost host left the westbound road when the shadowy mountains frightened them. He took many south along the great river, and for long years their kindred lost all word of them. The Nandor lived apart, loving water and dwelling by falls and streams, knowing plants and animals better than other Elves. Denethor son of Lenwë led part of them west over the mountains into Beleriand before the Moon rose.
