At
that time Beren and Lúthien yet dwelt in Tol Galen, the Green Isle, in the
River Adurant, southernmost of the streams that falling from Ered Lindon flowed
down to join with Gelion… ~ The Silmarillion, Chapter 22 (Beren and Tinuviel by
kayshasiemens, deviantART)
There
fell Mablung of the Heavy Hand before the doors of the treasury wherein lay the
Nauglamír; and the Silmaril was taken. ~ The Silmarillion, Chapter 22 (detail
of Death of Thingol by steamey, deviantART)
But
the Dwarves were victorious, and the halls of Thingol were ransacked and
plundered. ~ The Silmarillion, Chapter 22 (The Ruin of Doriath by Afalstein,
deviantART)
But
the Dwarves held on their way, and passed over the great bridge, and entered
into Menegroth; and there befell a thing most grievous among the sorrowful
deeds of the Elder Days. For there was battle in the Thousand Caves, and many
Elves and Dwarves were slain; and it has not been forgotten. ~ The
Silmarillion, Chapter 22 (Fall of Doriath by jyongyi, deviantART)

Thus
it was that the host of the Naugrim crossing over Aros passed unhindered into
the woods of Doriath; and none withstood them, for they were many and fierce,
and the captains of the Grey-elves were cast into doubt and despair, and went
hither and thither purposeless. ~ The Silmarillion, Chapter 22 (dwarves by maxres)
…and
[Melian] vanished out of Middle-earth, and passed to the land of the Valar
beyond the western sea, to muse upon her sorrows in the gardens of Lórien,
whence she came, and this tale speaks of her no more. ~ The Silmarillion,
Chapter 22 (Melian leaving Doriath by Murrauddin, deviantART)
Thereafter
Melian spoke to none save to Mablung only, bidding him take heed to the Silmaril,
and to send word speedily to Beren and Lúthien in Ossiriand… ~ The
Silmarillion, Chapter 22 (Luthien o Beren by korstemplar, deviantART)
