Battle of Eglarest

The Battle of Eglarest was one of the first battles fought in the War of Wrath. At the head of the Valinorian host drove the Vanya under the leadership of Ingwion, son of Ingwe. At Eglarest the army of Vanya discovered hordes of Orcs swarming around it. The Vanya managed to land on the shores and sweep aside the Orcs as if they were dust. More forces came ashore and this began a great push into Beleriand for the forces of the west.
