"Amalydi’al Italli, dut vald ambal'elosse tirisserd muntalialim, kwaleld stinendi var kwile."

The opening words of the book of her life, reads: "Beloved Itallië, who was watching the world from nothing, died so there would be life."

The truth of the matter is this; just like Celebrimbor and Fëanor before her, she imbued something with her Fë. Or, that's what the Avari think. A legendary sword wielded by the now united (under Ilmarien) tribes, it holds great power. But there is word of something else; something hidden deep within a fortress in a city as old as the world itself - Kheled-arnin. To take such an item would grant immense power, but the cost must also be weighed. This RP takes place with groups venturing in, to have a look for themselves. I'm limiting this RP to a maximum of five characters per person, and only one above rank 9. No Ainur, and that means no Dragons - nor werewolves. Merely men, Dwarves, and Elves, will go on this dangerous task.

This RP starts when you arrive outside of the gates. I will allow a brief period of peace when everyone joins to signify some sort of armistice before everything starts. However, this will be like the Hunger Games - but you're searching for something. It's not just about the search, it's about survival. Kheled-arnin is also not usually abandoned, but for the purposes of this RP it will be. The actual lore that I'm going to get clearance for goes that I sent it off to Glosur for safekeeping, so that when he eventually left the power of the Kings did not diminish. A foolish ideal, perhaps. But that's how it goes. Anyway, Kheled-arnin will be in ruins for this RP, and deserted.

I will be the supreme authority; and you narrate what you want to do in any combat, not what you do. I will not narrate what happens if I myself are involved, and will nominate a Co-host from one of the members. But, until then, may the best group win.

Let me clarify, Fëar are spirits. It's my belief that this is how the Silmarilli and the Elven Rings - as well as being very much pointed out to be so with Sauron. There is a real part of Itallië in both the sword, and the "Artifact".
