In Tolkien’s mythology, Glamdring is described as a longsword with a glittering, white blade and a hilt adorned with gems. It was forged by the high elves of Gondolin during the First Age, making it a relic of great antiquity and power. The sword itself is imbued with magic, capable of glowing in the presence of Orcs, which aids Gandalf in detecting their approach.
Gandalf’s choice of Glamdring reflects his status as a mighty wizard and a warrior in his own right. Unlike some characters who rely solely on magic, Gandalf is skilled in both sorcery and swordplay, making Glamdring an essential tool in his arsenal. The sword serves as a reminder of Gandalf’s dual nature—wise counselor and formidable fighter—as he navigates the challenges of Middle-earth.
