Pippin's Sword

item

Small ancient sword from the Barrow-downs wrought by the Northern kindred. Sized perfectly for a hobbit hand with signs of great age. Carried by Pippin as a member of the Guard of the Citadel.

Pippin's Sword, a small ancient blade forged by the Northern kindred and unearthed from the Barrow-downs, emerges as a poignant symbol of hobbit resilience in the epic struggle against Sauron. Perfectly suited to Pippin's hand and bearing the marks of great antiquity, it accompanies him through his elevation to the Guard of the Citadel in Minas Tirith. Though its role is more emblematic than battle-defining, the sword underscores Pippin's transformation from reluctant adventurer to honored defender of Gondor, enduring as a testament to the unassuming heroism of the Shire's folk across the saga.
