It is this sword that manages to stop the King of the Dead, unlike Legolas' arrow or Gimli's axe.
Elrond has one piece of advice to temper the ill news If Aragorn takes the Paths of the Dead, with the power of Andúril he will be able to call forth an army greater than any living army, and with that army he will have a chance to stop the Corsairs and save Arwen. His other news is equally grim: while Sauron's armies march to Minas Tirith, the Dark Lord has sent a fleet of Corsairs sailing for Gondor from the south that will arrive in two days. Elrond's daughter, Arwen, is dying and her fate is now tied to that of the One Ring. The sword is presented to Aragorn at Dunharrow by Elrond, who, along with Andúril, brought grave news. I am Andúril who was once Narsil, sword of Elendil. Isil." in Quenya, which translates as "Sun. Nányë Andúril I né Narsil i macil Elendilo. The sword is then engraved with runes saying "Anar. Reluctantly, Elrond agrees and has the shards of Narsil reforged into Andúril by the smiths of Rivendell. Arwen pleads with her father Elrond to reforge the sword, convinced that the enemy could be defeated. The sword is not seen again until The Return of the King when Aragorn and the Rohirrim are camped at Dunharrow.
Aragorn, out of respect, picks the hilt up and returns it to its rightful spot. Boromir, seemingly in awe of the mythical sword grabs the hilt, runs his finger along the blade and cuts himself - surprised that the blade is still sharp after 3,000 years, then accidentally drops the hilt on the ground when he catches Aragorn staring at him. It is not seen again until Aragorn and the Hobbits arrive at Rivendell under the guard and care of Elrond and his Elves.Īfter Aragorn and the Hobbits safely arrive in Rivendell, Aragorn takes time to rest and is reading a book when he is disturbed by Boromir's intrusion. Sensing victory, Sauron reaches for Isildur to finish him off, but the Man, unbowed, manages to use the hilt of Narsil and what remained of its broken blade to cut the One Ring from Sauron's hand. Isildur picks up the sword to fight Sauron himself, but Sauron knocks aside Isildur's attacks and stomps on the blade, shattering it into several pieces. Isildur rushes to Elendil's aid, but Elendil is already dead. Sauron emerges and kills both Gil-galad and Elendil. The sword's first appearance, as Narsil, is in Peter Jackson's The Fellowship of the Ring in the possession of Elendil during the Battle of Dagorlad, holding it high to rally his men to him. Portrayal in adaptationsĪragorn holding Andúril, the blade Narsil reforged, as depicted in The Lord of the Rings film trilogy by Peter Jackson The Lord of the Rings film trilogy The name Andúril means "Flame of the West", from the Quenya andúnë ("west, sunset") and ril ("brilliance"). Telchar also forged Angrist, the knife that pried a Silmaril from the Iron Crown of Morgoth, and the Dragon-helm of Dor-lómin. Telchar forged the original sword, Narsil. He reluctantly set it aside before meeting Théoden, telling Háma that death would come to any man except himself who drew it from its scabbard. In Rohan, Aragorn used it as evidence of his heritage when he, Legolas, and Gimli first met Éomer. There was an enchantment upon the scabbard so that the blade that was drawn from it would not be stained or broken, even in defeat. It was made by the Galadhrim, and was overlaid with a tracery of flowers and leaves and elven runes spelling out the name of the sword and its lineage. In Lothlórien, Galadriel and Celeborn gave Aragorn a sheath for Andúril. He carried it throughout the quest of the Fellowship of the Ring. Narsil, before it was reforged as AndúrilĪfter the Council of Elrond, the Elves of Rivendell reforged Narsil into a new sword, which Aragorn named Andúril.
