|
|
I've got another daft question, for my potential AU fic I'm working on;
After Gandalf fought with the Balrog in Moria and before he came back as Gandalf the White, what d'you reckon happened to Narya? I mean, would he have had the ring on him at the time, just not worn openly? (as it says at the end of RotK that he wore it openly for the first time when he was headed for the Havens) or would it have been stashed somewhere?
Any suggestions or opinions would be very useful. _________________ Pervy Nazgul Fancier and owner of Fluffy the Fell Beast |

Not meaning to be a smartypants but what ever happened Narya also happend to Glamdring (unless Gandalf had some cool summoning power)
My guess is that when Gwaihir (or whatever eagle it was) picked him up, he picked up his stuff too. That part of the book is kinda fuzzy anyway

I would imagine that these "things," not being boyd or spirit, would be carried with the body...
I agree with Inglor that they were picked up with the body.
Did anyone mention his staff? Galdalf usu. had three things...
