Who: Maglor and YOU! Also Maedhros is likely around somewhere
Broadcast: Video from one of the planet Mine sites
Action: Forges!
When: Anytime during this stop

I must say the good folk of this stop are very kind - they have allowed my brother and I use of the mines and forges here in exchange for some trading. My brother and I are going to be working on some proper swords - if anyone else is inclined to a bladed weapon, we are happy to make you one as well.

Grandfather, Fingon, you needn't ask, but your help in the forges would be invaluable - Maedhros and I manage, of course, but neither of us are... what we were. And we have neither Father, nor Curvo, nor Tylepe here to point out everything we are doing wrong!

{Fingon leans briefly against him, huffing out a breath.} ...Yes, yes, I know. {But his tone is affectionately exasperated.}

I have been more careful since, and this will be of great help.

We will have to start sparring again, I think. [ Maglor hums ]

I am not what I once was - Maedhros either, although he is closer to his old strength than I. But the folk that I have been speaking to raised concern that there might be further attacks - as war makes for good viewing. [ He says darkly ]

{A frown, Fingon doesn't like the sound of that.}

Then we had best get to work on forging more swords and daggers. Shields, too, I should think.

I have recovered most of my strength, but it can never hurt to spar with you two.

[ Neither did Maglor! ]

Aye - although I do not know how well a shield would stop a bullet. I wish we had one of the Firebeards or Longbeards here! They had much better skill in such things.

And I think you will have the better of me for a while yet! But we should set aside a time and space... the Iskaluit?

[valiantfire]

Perhaps it would do little, but we know well how they can be used to distract.

{Fingon scoffs, smiling fondly.} Not long, I expect! We can only improve.

{A nod.} That would likely be best.

[bythewaves]

True enough! Although I do not know if the large battle shields of old would be practical, in these settings.

[ Maglor scoffs right back ] Longer than you think, I am sure!
