With his brothers, Maedhros held the eastern passes into Beleriand; he himself dwelt in a fortress on the hill of Himring.

  Maedhros
Tolkien, Maedhros the Tall was one of the Noldor, the eldest of the sons of Fëanor.
Shortly after the battle of Dagor-nuin-Giliath in which Fëanor was killed, Maedhros was captured by Morgoth, and hung by the wrist of his right hand upon the face of a precipice of Thangorodrim[?].
Maedhros later ruled the lands around the Hill of Himring[?], which became known as the March of Maedhros because it was exposed to the hosts of Morgoth, and defeated them in the Dagor Aglareb[?].

They returned to Tirion, however, after Maedhros brought tidings of Finwë’s murder and the theft of the Silmarilli to his father and Manwë in Y.T.

Maedhros was taken captive and hung by the wrist of his right hand upon Thangorodrim in great pain.
Maedhros, in his imprisonment, then slays himself and throws the Silmaril on the ground, which is then taken to Valar.

So Maedhros trudged on, shivering cold but happy, the guise of an innocent visit falling easily over his hidden lie as his thoughts returned again to the conversation with his father the day before.
Maedhros drew breath to answer, vain though it might be, but his little brother held up his hand, and continued.
Maedhros wanted to stop him, but words refuted his hold on them, and in the aftershock of the kiss confusion still made his mind a messed jumble of mangled thoughts.

 Paradise Lost by Cirdan
Maedhros knew that his father was reluctant to do so because, during their short journey from camp to Tirion, Feanor had already begun to conceive of great works to present at the Celebration of the Arrival of the Eldalie to Aman.
Maedhros had thought that his brothers would straight away announce their intentions to go with him to Alqualonde, but none of them said a word, and after a moment, Maedhros realized that they also wanted to prepare for the Celebration.
Maedhros couldn't even relate through his father, for although Feanor was the only child of Miriel and distant from the children of Indis, he was driven by the fire of his own heart and always too preoccupied with his craft and ideas to feel any sense of loneliness.
