Notes[]
- Original form : Hellion = Pan Hellion
- In the 2012 version of his article Population and Urbanization in Eriador Thomas Morwinsky relocates "Ningliras" in "Hellion"'s original location.In the earlier version he had located "Ningliras" in the Barrow-downs in northern Cardolan (published in Other Minds Magazine #13).He does not reuse the name "Hellion" in the 201w version nor assign it to any other location.
- Ost Baranor in LOTRO seems to be the same location.
