Fanwork Notes

First published: April 4, 2003

Author's Note: The sources for this short piece are the 'The Hobbit', 'Lord of the Rings', 'The Silmarillion', 'Unfinished Tales' and both volumes of 'Lost Tales'. Also, the Encyclopaedia of Arda provided some valuable information. []

After much deliberation, I decided to put this in the Silm section, despite LOTR and Hobbit references… Basically; the idea hit me one day and morphed into seven pages of angst! 

The title comes from the name of a song by The Frames, a rather brilliant Irish band:

"We wield the mighty sword that cuts through bone and lays the liars down,

We wield an angry sword that softens stone and turns the tides around."

 

"This, Gandalf, was Glamdring, Foe-hammer that the king of Gondolin once wore."

Elrond's words in 'The Hobbit'
