The Sil says that Maedhros heard the Elves as they beat upon the gates of Angband, and he cried out for help, but his cries were drowned in the vastness of the rock. What I am wondering is, why didn't Maedhros say a prayer to Iluvatar or Manwe for some kind of aid? Why did it wait until Fingon did it?
