Therefore, on the advice of Felagund, Bëor led his people to Estolad, the encampment, in the realm of Amrod and Amras, sons of Fëanor. īëor and his people settled first in Ossiriand, but were at odds with the Green-elves that already dwelt there, for the men competed with the Elves for food and natural resources. The name he is more commonly called by, Bëor was actually the Taliska word for 'vassal', which he earned in the service of Felagund. In the tongue of his people, called Taliska, Bëor was named 'Balan'. The language barrier was not a major problem due to the similarities between the tongue of the Bëorians, which had been influenced by the Elves they had met earlier, and the Sindarin tongue. After years of wandering westwards in search of the High Elves (or the Valar, of whom the Bëorians had heard rumor from the lesser Elves they had met in the east), Bëor was eager to establish good relations with Finrod, and the two strove to understand each other. He and his folk were the first of Mankind to encounter the Ñoldor of Beleriand when King Finrod Felagund happened upon their camp in Ossiriand in the year FA 310.
