Dimrost;

Dimrost; The Rainy Stair was a cascading waterfall on the stream of Celebros, and it flowed down to meet the River Teiglin near the borders of Brethil. The falls themselves raised a fine spray into the air, from which they took their name, "Rainy Stair". Now above the Dimrost, the Men Of Brethil constructed a wooden bridge that they used in particular to cross over the Celebros. Now When Níniel was first brought to Brethil, she saw that view from the bridge, she started shivering uncontrollably......so much so that the name of Dimrost was changed to Nen Girith, or "Shuddering Water". Her death later on shows the foresight she had seen here on the ravines of Teiglin and the fact that she would take her place among the dead in this area. Last night I was re reading The Children Of Húrin before bed, and this particular passage describing the Dimrost stuck out to me....so i decided to do a post on it.
