I wouldn't have thought so because if the Nazgûl are the kindred it would have to be Gondorians as the dwarves would have no kinship with the Nazgûl.

"fell beasts" doesn't have to be a reference to the Nazgul's steeds, it could be just what it means : deadly animals.

The quote is correct (sorry about the mountains! I didn't have much time, that's why it's so short). Niether of your guesses of the speaker are corret until now.

Could it be Oromë speaking to the Elves?

I just found one little mistake - it's 'dwell there', not 'dwelt'.

For the hint... The 'ancient kindred' are the Elves, and 'fell beasts' are beasts of Morgoth, that we don't know anythign else about them.

It's not Melian, And Beren is not right.

Another hint for Val - It's spoken to Thingol. (now that's a big hint!)

I'm afraid that's as close as I'd ever get. I can't remember any dwarf-name from the First Age
