Description: Caves where Tuor dwelt with the grey-elves when he was an outlaw.

"Therefore Annael led his small people to the caves of Androth and there they lived a hard and wary life, until Tuor was sixteen years of age and was become strong and able to wield arms, the axe and bow of the Grey-elves; and his heart grew hot within him at the tale of the griefs of his people, and he wished to go forth and avenge them on the Orcs and Easterlings. But Annael forbade this."
