After the Battle at the River Sirion, the Host of the West pushed forward through the armies of Morgoth. Morgoth unleashed the winged dragons in a desperate attempt to beat the forces of the west. Led by Ancalagon, the greatest dragon in the history of Arda--the Host of the West had to fall back from Angband due to the surprise attack of the Winged Drakes.
