That's a good connection, but not what I'm looking for.

Maybe fighting to save someone they cared for?
Glorfindel with the Balrog like Pippin with the troll?

I don't think that would be unique to them...

You're not warm.

Both of them left a jewel behind as a sign for somebody following: Glorfindel's beryl on the bridge of Mitheithel for Frodo and Aragorn, Pippin's Lorien brooch in the grass of Rohan for the Three Hunters. (Note that Aragorn was involved in both cases!)

Aha, very cunning, and 100% correct!

Pitchwife · 01-24-2009, 11:58 AM

That was a nice one.

OK - while we're talking about Glorfindel, what does he have in common with Fingolfin?

I'd hate to kill this thread, so here's a hint: It happened to both of them after their death. (And yes, that means I'm talking about Glorfindel of Gondolin, whether he was the same person as Glorfindel of Rivendell or not.)
