Faenor turns to Dolenus, and presents a small white wooden box, engraved with silver. Within are twin Elven-knives, sheathed in scabbards of silver and dark ivory, with grips made of white bones from creatures that never walked the earth, and bright elven-steel blades with bronze vine-and-leaf designs.

'These are knives, made in Doriath, before the Noldor came ever back to these shores. May they serve you well,' Faenor says, smiling a little for reasons unknown. 'They were fashioned for the High Marchwarden of Thingol, his herald and his second captain. I have no more use for them, and you will have need for good blades in the days to come. They shine by the light of the stars, and their sight is a fearful thing for the Enemy's servants to behold.'

Next he turns to Turatamo, and presents a fine set of axe and sword, matched in color and decór. The hafts are of smooth dark wood, the blades of fine silvery steel, the decór of bronze, gold, and ruby, and the gems seem to almost glow like red stars in the dusky light.

'These were once the weapons of a famed warrior of the Grey Elves. His name was Mablung, and he was captain of the King of Doriath. These weapons saw battles before ever you were born, Noldo, and they were recovered from the Dwarves of Nogrod at the battle of the Malduin. Now, they deserve a new bearer.'

Faenor then trns to Hallacar, and grimaces slightly before presenting a small phial of a red-gold liquid.

'This is wine from Dorwinion, aged for eight hundred years in Elven-casks. It has certain properties you may find useful on your journeys. Do not drink it all at one time! It is not a mortal brew, and will burn you from the inside out if you presume to overindulge. Small sips will do for yourself.'

Then, that done, he presents the man also with a sword, black-hilted, with a bare steel blade and a bare pommel and crossguard.

'This sword is not named, nor is it storied, but it shall serve you better than the weapon you currently carry.'
