It was also reported that Talagand did not lead his housetroops into battle personally, but instead hid himself in his mansion, where he was most likely burned or taken captive.Later legend ridiculed Talagand and mean-spirited satirists even speculated that Talagand survived the Fall of Gondolin and became Morgoths court j
