But I think what we can do is we can look at the last case of, uh, refused counsels in this, and that's an interesting one to me.

It's, it's very, it's different from the rest because this is the point at which Túrin has left, um, and Beleg says, "I'm gonna go find him because Thingol has, um, has named him innocent." And he asks for Anglachel, the, uh, sword that was, um, uh, made by A- Eöl the Dark Elf.

Uh, I'll just read it so that we're all familiar with it.

Uh, "Beleg chose Anglachel, and that was a sword of great fame, and it was so named because it was made of iron that fell from heaven as a blazing star.

That sword does not enter into this tale," but I'm gonna tell you about it right now.

"Though it was made of the same ore..." [chuckles] You know, I love how he says it's not gonna enter this tale, but then here's the information about it.

Uh, "It was made of the same ore by the same smith, and that smith was Eöl the Dark Elf, who took Aredhel, Turgon's sister, to wife.

He gave Anglachel to Thingol as fee, which he begrudged, for leave to dwell in Nan Elmoth.
