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!

[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.

[ Maglor hums thoughtfully ]

It sounds unusual - without working diagrams, I do not know if we would be able to reporduce it. But if a longsword would do, that much is easy enough!

[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.

You are welcome - I am only sorry we will not be able to give you back the blade you are used to! Have you any particular requirements in regards to length and so on?

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

Single or double handed? And a dual-edge?
