![]() ![]() Towards the end of the Third Age, the light fled with Frodo to the shores of Eldamar. His great faith in times of darkness inspired them to keep pushing on. The light of this bright star was trapped into the star-glass. Galadriel, Frodo, and (in the books) Sam use the phial capturing Erendil’s light to ward off evil and renew their spirits. Water can be gentle, healing, and calm, and all of life depends on it. ![]() Galadriel protects her lands with the power of Nenya the Ring of Water. When Frodo used it against the spider for the first time, he cried out in Quenya ‘Hail Earendil, brightest of stars!’ This referred to the light of the star Earendil, the brightest of all the stars in the sky, the Silmaril he wore on his brow. However, she uses all her wits, power, and strength to help Frodo and the Fellowship, either by giving them gifts, pieces of advice, or even simply ensuring they sleep peacefully at night. This star-glass is known to be calling out to Elbereth for power. It was Gandalf who preserved the Phial of Galadriel when the hobbits were being treated after the defeat at Mount Doom. The star-glass and the box of the Earth were found with Sam when he and Frodo were rescued after their collapse. Sam Gamgee also tried to use the Phial of Galadriel at Mount Doom but the power of the Phial faded because Sauron was much more powerful than Galadriel.

Frodo had also used the Phial of Galadriel when he and Gamgee entered the Mordor and had to defend themselves against the attacks of Shelob’s lair. When he, Gollum, and Gamgee reached Cirith Ungol, they watched an army of the Lord of the Nazgul being led from the Minas Morgul.įrodo used the mere touch of the Phial to ease the situation when he feared the Witch-king had spotted them. Galadriel foreshadows Frodo’s voyage in her lament, which includes the words nai hiruvalyë Valimar, maybe thou shalt find Valimarthe city of the Valar, which is in Valinor. It was meant to remain unused in his possession until he reached the edge of Mordor. The admonition from Akallabêth surely covers all of the Undying Lands, and since we know Frodo entered those, it proves nothing about his case. The elf-queen bestowed the gift to Frodo when the Fellowship departed from Lothlorien. A crystal Phial containing water from her fountain, the Phial of Galadriel held the light of the Two Trees preserved in a Silmaril. ![]()
