Wielding the Flame of Anor

[HerenIstarion]

thanks, lathspell

The staff breaking business reminded me somehow of the deliberate brooch-loosing Pippin was commended for by Aragorn:

One who cannot cast away a treasure at need is in fetters. You did rightly

I refer to your point of Gandalf knowing the whole of his staff. When I took time to think about it, I concluded the staff must have been dear to him, even if at only for the sake of all this carrying it around for millenia. So the same praise may apply, what d'ya think?
