of the return of the noldor it has been told that feanor and his sons came first of the exiles to middle-earth , and landed in the waste of lammoth , the great echo , upon the outer shores of the firth of drengist and even as the noldor set foot upon the strand their cries were taken up into the hills and multiplied , so that a clamour as of countless mighty voices filled all the coasts of the north ; and the noise of the burning of the ships at losgar went down the winds of the sea as a tumult of great wrath , and far away all who heard that sound were filled with wonder .
