Sword Anduril-Aragorn

Anduril, also known as "The Flame of the West" or "The Sword That Was Broken", is an iconic sword in the legendary literary work of J.R.R. Tolkien, "The Lord of the Rings." This sword plays a central role in the story and in the life of the character Aragorn. Here you have more information about the sword Anduril and its meaning in Tolkien's work:

History of the Sword:

The history of Anduril dates back to the First Age of Middle-earth, when it was forged by the skilled elf and master blacksmith, Telchar, in the city of Nogrod. The original sword was called Narsil and belonged to Elendil, the king of Gondor and Arnor. Narsil was broken in battle against the Dark Lord Sauron during the Last Alliance of Elves and Men.

Anduril Reforging:

Aragorn, whose real name was Aragorn II and also known as Strider, was the heir of Isildur, the son of Elendil. When Aragorn accepted his destiny as king of Gondor, he decided to reforge the sword Narsil. The sword was reforged by the master elven blacksmith, the Lord of Rivendell, and renamed Anduril, meaning "Flame of the West" in Sindarin. This process symbolized the restoration of hope and unity in the fight against the forces of darkness.

Anduril symbolism:

Anduril became a powerful symbol of the lineage of the kings of Gondor and Arnor, and of hope for Middle-earth. The sword represented Aragorn's legitimacy as king and his role as leader in the war against Sauron.

Use in Battle:

Aragorn led Anduril in numerous battles and pivotal moments during his quest to defeat Sauron and restore peace to Middle-earth. The sword proved to be a formidable tool in his fight against the forces of evil.

Anduril's destiny:

After Sauron's defeat and the restoration of Gondor, Anduril became a royal treasure and was passed down from king to king in Aragorn's line. The sword symbolizes the peace and prosperity that returned to Middle-earth under Aragorn's reign.

It can be said that the famous sword Anduril is a significant element in the epic of "The Lord of the Rings". Its story reflects themes of honour, inheritance and rebirth that are central to Tolkien's work, and its symbolism as a symbol of royalty and hope makes it an unforgettable part of the world of Middle-earth.
