thorinss: MIDDLE-EARTH MEME: [2/3 heroes] Glorfindel “Glorfindel was one of the mightiest Elves of Middle-earth in the Third Age. He was distinctive because of his return to Middle-earth after death, acting as an emissary of the Valar, on a similar mission to the Istari who were to come several thousand years later. He was an elf of great beauty, power, wisdom, and moral courage. He was clearly loved by the people of Gondolin, who mourned his passing greatly. He acted most courageously during the Fall, his House being among those that suffered the greatest losses, and eventually giving his own life for the safety of Tuor and Idril, accomplishing the designs of the Valar, though it was said that he “would have defended them even had they been fugitives of any rank”. He was repentant of the rebellion of the Noldor, and took no part in the Kinslaying. His acts in the Third Age also showed great presence and authority, as did the very fact that he was sent as an emissary of the Valar.“ [x] [x] -- source link
