In briefanswer capsule

Rivil is a watercourse running out of Dorthonion and emptying into the Fen of Serech. In the campaign of the Nirnaeth Arnoediad the western host of Morgoth advanced until its front stood along the Sirion, stretching from the fortress of Eithel Sirion to the point where this stream joins the fen; Fingon’s forward posts observed the foe across that line.
