Eärendil once wore one of the Elven Gems, steering the white ship that soared across the sky, and slew the mightiest and greatest dragon, Ankala Gang.
He achieved this feat while he was still on the Middle-earth Continent, in the war against the Great Dark Enemy, Morgoth.
Perhaps it was precisely because he, too, had fought against dragons that the Light of Airendil, which Lady Galadriel had bestowed upon the Lady of the Lake's Sword, was activated at this moment.
And when the dragon died, that thin, wavering ribbon of light hanging down from the starry firmament and linked to Aron Dite slowly faded into the air.
Only, upon the Lady of the Lake's Sword, Lann could feel that gentle and pure Light of Airendil had not vanished with it, but instead returned to the depths of the Long Blade.
This light's source was the crystal phial in Lady Galadriel's hand, which stored the radiance of the Elven Gems.
