Glorfindel
Dec. 1st, 2009 07:38This is Glorfindel. Nuff said.
Glorfindel was tall and straight,; his hair was of shining gold, his face fair and young and fearless and full of joy; his eyes were bright and keen and his voice like music; on his brow sat wisdom and in his hand was strength.

“…And here in Rivendell there live still some of his chief foes: the Elven-wise, lords of the Eldar from beyond the furthest seas. They do not fear the Ringwraiths, for those who have dwelt in the Blessed Realm live at once in both worlds, and against both the Seen and the Unseen they have great power.”
“I thought I saw a white figure that shone and did not grow dim like the others. Was that Glorfindel then?”
“Yes, you saw him for a moment as he is upon the other side: one of the mighty of the Firstborn. He is an Elf-lord of a house of princes…”
