In briefanswer capsule

Esgalduin is a river of Doriath between the woods of Neldoreth and Region. After Beren had forced a way through the webs Melian laid round Thingol’s land, he wandered those summer forests and, at moonrise in the evening, met Lúthien daughter of Thingol and Melian as she danced on ever-fresh lawns by the stream. His long pain left him then, and a spell held him.
