In briefanswer capsule

Androth is caves in Mithrim’s hills where Annael among the Grey-elves fostered Tuor after Rían bore him in those wilds. At sixteen the Elves meant to leave for Sirion’s havens, but Orcs and Easterlings struck first; Lorgan of Hithlum enslaved Tuor for three years. Escaped, he dwelt alone again in Androth as an outlaw, harrying the Easterlings until Ulmo moved him to go west across Dor-lómin.
