Oh dear, I just had a mental picture of Gandalf crying out "Fire," Galadriel "Wind!" Elrond "Wind!" It's a very funny mental picture!

I think that Galadriel was fully capable of defending herself, she just didn't need to. After all, one who fought against Feanor (and his sons) during the Kinslaying (and survived!) has to have been one pretty powerful warrior indeed. It is also said that Galadriel "was a match for the athletes and the loremasters of the Noldor in their youth." That doesn't seem like the kind of thing that you can easily forget.

After all, she had loads of men around to defend her, and she didn't even have to lift a finger. Galadriel spoke, they all served. Isn't that every girl's dream? [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
