Silly Poll: Sindar - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Cirdan wasn't flashy and haughty like Thingol, nor rustically gone-native like Thranduil, nor second fiddle like Celeborn (and we know who wore the pants in that family

).

Cirdan was a faithful steward and protective of his people throughout the ages, and he had enough common sense and intuition to not only last from Cuivienen to the 4th Age in Middle-earth, but to also see the greatness of Gandalf, even giving up an Elven Ring in deference to one who could truly use it.

If there was one Elf I'd want to talk to in Middle-earth, it'd be Cirdan. He's seen it all.
