He's ultimately released; the story - which is as sad as they get - is in The Ruin of Doriath chapter I believe.

Is he like alive when he is finally released?
Actually you know what, never mind I'll read it myself. Thanx for answering my question though, I was really confused with that.

Yes he was alive. Tolkien went into some detail during his of the tradition entitled: "The Wanderings of Hurin" which was published in HoME XI. Alas he never finished it and it basically ends at the end of the destruction of the settlement at Brethil [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
