Varan has also heard of the huge force coming from Rhun. He sent a messneger to Umayr to warn him of the growing force very near his borders. He then gathered a force of 200 elite veteran Tauredain and went to Khand, where nearly none remained and burned all their villages and camps in the southern quarter of the land. After that he goes to Dorwinion and holds off the attackers on the only path going between two hills, the only other way to get to the other side was 3 leagues north and 4 leagues south.

{PS: Varan used that tactic that Leonidas used to defend Greece for a few days, where he resisted hundreds of thousands of persians with only 300 spartans.}
