Video/Action

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!

[He shakes his head.]

Not at all; blades that are magical in and of themselves can be hard to come by at home. A good steel sword would serve my purposes just fine.

[That makes him pause for a moment to consider his response.]

...The blade that was taken from me on arrival was a particularly uncommon design: a double-ended sword with gaps in the center of each blade for grips, meant to be wielded as much like a staff as anything. But I'm also well-accustomed to using more traditional longswords.

[He nods with equanimity: if he's disappointed not to be able to get a duplicate of his favorite sword back, it doesn't show on his face.]

I don't think trusting to my artistic skills is a great plan, so a longsword it is. I appreciate it very much.

I'm around six feet in height, and stronger than a human; with that information, I'll leave the exact specifications to the experts.
