	Ecthelion of the Fountain - Tolkien Gateway
		Ecthelion was an Elf-lord of Gondolin, leader of the People of the Fountain.
		Previously, Ecthelion had slain three Balrogs, but he had lost the use of his shield arm in the process, and was carried in a swoon to safety by Tuor.
		Gothmog's fire was thus quenched, but Ecthelion also drowned with him.

	TolkienWiki: Ecthelion__of__the__Fountain
		Ecthelion of the Fountain, captain of Gondolin and warden of the great gate at the end of the climbing road, the hidden entrance to Gondolin.
		Ecthelion, whose face was of the pallor of grey steel and whose shield-arm hung limp at his side, strode above him as he fell; and that Gnome drave at the demon, yet did not give him his death, getting rather a wound to his sword-arm that his weapon left his grasp.
		It should be noted that it should be Fountains instead of the singular Fountain as per "Of Tuor and his coming to Gondolin" in Unfinished Tales.

		Ecthelion did not kill the creature, rather, his sword-arm was wounded and his blade dropped from his hand.
		By the valor of the lord of the Fountain, Tuor was able to escape from the fall, with his wife and son, Eärendil, who later became the savoir of the Elves of Middle-Earth.

	Encyclopedia of Arda: Ecthelion of the Fountain
		A lord of Gondolin, famed as the slayer of Gothmog Lord of Balrogs in the Fall of that city.
		Both derive the name from the Elvish ecthel, but in one case (in volume 2) that word is interpreted 'fountain', whereas in the other (in volume 5) it is defined as 'spear-point', with a quite different etymology.
		It seems certain that 'fountain' was the earlier interpretation, and given that Ecthelion is consistently referred to as 'Ecthelion of the Fountain', it hardly seems plausible that the original definition simply slipped Tolkien's mind.

		Ecthelion bowed his head and closed his eyes in mourning at the news, his thoughts turning to Egalmoth; he could only imagine how the captain of the Heavenly Arch would react to the news of his lover's death.
		Ecthelion opened his mouth to call out to his lover, but whatever sound he made was swallowed by the waters around him.
		Ecthelion did not feel the gentle hand of Ulmo reach into the waters of the fountain and gently bear him to the bottom of the deep pool.

	THE TOLKIEN FORUM - Fiery battle in Cool waters?
		However, I think that the last part is a touch to show opposites: Ecthelion, after a terrible, burning fight, died in the cool waters.
		I think this would imply that the Ecthelion continued fighting the Balrog, killing him, and then laden down by this armor perished in the fountain.
		I agree with Nenya, in that it means that Ecthelion 'perished in cool water' after fighting in a 'fiery battle' in the Court.

		Title: The Flower and The Fountain: In Loving Memory Author: Aduial (imladris@bellsouth.net) Pairing: Glorfindel/Ecthelion Rating: NC-17 Summary: Tuor and Idril are safely away, but Glorfindel plunges to his death after slaying a Balrog.
		It wasn’t long until he discovered that they were not lies, yet Calendir began to wonder why Glorfindel and Ecthelion did not let the whole of the city know of their relationship.
		There had been little the past few days Glorfindel and Ecthelion had been allowed to do but rest, for the people of their houses insisted on such and their chief advisors had promptly taken over their duties.

		As the "mate" to King Turgon's sword Glamdring, Orcrist was likely borne by a high ranking lord in the King's entourage.
		Only four possibilities present themselves: Maeglin, Tuor, Ecthelion of the Fountain, and Glorfindel.
		Of the two, Glorfindel died outside of the city - only Ecthelion perished in Gondolin slaying Gothmog, lord of the Balrogs.

		It seems that Gothmog was dead when they fell into the fountain together because he had been spiked by Etchelion's helm, and thus fell onto to Etchelion.
		I don't see why went JRRT says, and that creature found his bane, it means that it was Ecthelion of the Fountains and not necessarily his death.
		No, I think they died as soon as they entered the fountain i.e their wounds were mortal.

		The third and final deed of Gothmog was the assault of Gondolin, where Ecthelion of the Fountain was slain and where Gothmog died at last at his han.
		As Gothmog prepared to deal the final blow, Ecthelion of the Fountain ran in front of Tuor, and was wounded in his sword-arm.
		Then Gothmog raised his whip, and Ecthelion, unable to wield a sword, charged at the Lord of Balrogs, the spike on his helmet driving into the high captain of Angband.

		"Then came there from the south of the city the people of the Fountain, and Ecthelion was their lord, and silver and diamonds were their delight; and swords very long, bright and pale did they wield, and they went into battle to the music of flutes.
		Its a great picture of Gothmog and I use it for the confrontation of Gothmog and Ecthelion at the fountain in the main square of Gondolin.
		Strictly speaking, one does not see a fountain or any other city structures in the background, but otherwise the picture gives the proper impression of Ecthelion's courage to challenge the Balrog.

		The Elf-Lord Ecthelion of the Fountain slew (and was slain) by Gothmog in mortal combat in the King's Square while defending Gondolin.
		Gothmog was slain by Ecthelion after he had just slain him, so apparently he fell on Ecthelion's sword(?).
		Sorry for guessing about the last part, but you have to have "Of the Fall of Gondolin" to get more details than are found in The Silmarillion.

		Upon seeing the golden Elf approach him, Tuor was tempted to decline the offer for he too still felt the sting of Ecthelion's passing.
		It took a bit more time before he realized that their love was deep and something with which they wished to share among themselves, but something they would not hide from those who discovered the fact.
		So too did Galdor, Legolas and Calendir join them, the youth of the Fountain aiding Egalmoth who would not suffer to sit idly by in such a time despite his injuries.

		i've been trying to think of different ways to do the feathers, but now that I have a fountain guard coming in the mail, there's really no need.
		Actually I think besides the feather detail, your fountain guard's helmet looks better than the toybiz one.
		Pippins helm, although a bit small has just the right curvature - something toybiz seems not to have replicated for their citadel guard.
