Maybe that is why the Ring Wraiths and the Witch King of Angmar ran from Glorfindel and Asfaloth, they could not stand the Bells!
Maybe they are speciel elven bells that are tuned to a frequency that drive Ring Wraiths and their like crazy?

Yes that is the question, did Glorfindel use the bells so Aragorn could hear him? Because he liked the sound? Was he looking for a fight with the riders, or did he just forget to take them off?

“And you look... unnaturally cheerful”--LOL!

Great piece, Laire. =D

An enjoyable story about a puzzling plot point.

It does appear a frivolous thing, to have worn that set of harness when out searching for Aragorn and the Ringbearer! And this is as good a way as any to discuss it--to get drunk first! Heh!

I really enjoyed this. For some reason the title drew me in but the story kept me there. It fills in missing information very nicely. Thanks for a lovely read.

“You took it when you went out to find Frodo,” Erestor pointed out. “That was hardly a celebratory errand.”

“I did it so Aragorn would recognize me!”


That's a great explanation! I never thought of that before.

A delightful little story. :)

Best. Exploration*. Ever.

*Exploration of small facts only obliquely mentioned by Tolkien but also rather confusing when you actually think about it. But if I'd said that above, I wouldn't have gotten the nice flow of "three one word sentences."

Brilliant. I never really thought to question bells on an elvish horse. Seemed appropriate somehow but..yep...bells vs the Nazgul seems to be giving away a large advantage of stealth!
