(just so everyone knows, by "Return" I was making a joke, like the sword got lost under King Ellesar or Eldarion and The Little Armory found/reforged it!)

No problem, Matt. Just remember to be very careful with it.

Cool!

Pardon my ignorance, but why does Matt have to be careful with the sword? My best guess is that it is pretty easy to break...

Be carful with Anduril? Tell that to the guards of the Citadel of Anduril ;)



Guards stand outside the Building

Anduril needs no light inside the Building, it has the light of the sun and the moon![/url]

Hey Matt,

Very Nice to see it is well protected. I'm surprised Jeff gave up a protoype as fine as that. You are a lucky man.

I feel kind of stupid asking this question but... Who does Anduril belong to?

King Ellesar (aka Aragorn, Eruanno is like Aragorn great-grandson or something....(he is also my own character) ) or if you mean in real life, me!

Just a Note-
In the books Aragorn had Anduril from the time he left Imaldris till the end of the book, the movies wanted to make it more dramatic or something, so they gave him a "Ranger's Sword" and an "Elven Knife" to fight with till he got Anduril....

Here is a link for you:

http://www.lordotrings.com/tour/anduril.asp

Quoting text from the site:
The sword was forged as Narsil and was wielded by Elendil until it broke in Elendil's fall at the siege of Barad-dûr. Aragorn inherited the shards of Narsil as the heir of Elendil. The sword was reforged in Rivendell and Aragorn renamed it Anduril, meaning the Flame of the West.

Alright, so it was oringinaly called Narsil, then broken in that battle with Sauron, then reforged and renamed Anduril by Aragorn?

If you're Aragorn's great-grandson, where are the orcs in your brickshelf folder from? Are they the great-grandchildren of the orcs from Moria that never died? Or atleast didn't in the movies...

Not by a long shot.
