History
After the attack on Artanor(Doriath), Bodruith, filled with greed, wanted to steal the Nauglafring from Naugladur the Lord of Nogrod. At the same time, Ufedhim, filled filled with the same lust for the necklace, killed Naugladur. Bodruith claimed that he is the rightful owner, thus he attempted to slay Ufedhin to reclaim the Nauglafring. His attempt was not successful, Ufedhin had managed to kill hi. When Bodruith was discovered next to the Naugladur, it was thought that he was the one who tried to take the necklace and slay the Lord of Nogrod, thus Ufedhin managed to escape for a while.[2]
