glorfindel and ecthelion would love doing Get Help
just. imagine for a moment. glorfindel wails exaggeratedly, “GET HELP! GET HELP! MY FRIEND IS INJURED!!” and ecthelion is just theatrically Fake Dying in glorfindel’s arms like the absolute drama king he is
Sindarin Glorfindel literally translates to “golden-haired”.
His name in Quenya is Laurefindil, which translates to “golden-haired” (or “golden head of hair” if you want to take the literal meaning of
findil
that is ‘head of hair’)
His name in Valarin would be Tulukhastaz, which translates to “golden-haired” (or “golden head of hair” taking into account (a)šata- that means ‘hair of head’ in Valarin)
Tulukhastaz in Eldarin is rendered Tulkas. 🙂
Glorfindel the Elf and Tulkas the Vala have the exact same name. And both are epic warriors. Go figure.
headcanon: as a child, Earendil would paint flowers and bees on Glorfindel’s helmet because he said he looked scary in his armour
bonus: Glorfindel really likes bees
Elrond: Glorfindel died when he defended my grandparents against a Balrog. He will be sorely missed.
Glorfindel: QUIT TELLING EVERYONE I’M STILL DEAD
Elrond: sometimes I can still hear his voice
