Dear G; Tried to find you...

[burrahobbit]

`I was the herald of Gil-galad and marched with his host. I was at the Battle of Dagorlad before the Black Gate of Mordor, where we had the mastery: for the Spear of Gil-galad and the Sword of Elendil, Aiglos and Narsil, none could withstand. I beheld the last combat on the slopes of Orodruin, where Gil-galad died, and Elendil fell, and Narsil broke beneath him; but Sauron himself was overthrown, and Isildur cut the Ring from his hand with the hilt-shard of his father's sword, and took it for his own.'

I wonder what the name of Elrond's sword was.

The might of Elrond is in wisdom not in weapons, it is said.

That's what Boromir said, and he knew the fellow personally.
