4th Age White Council

A High elf sits at the top of a long table on which Morwath (as Lastar's Staff) is sat. The elf is dressed in autumnal colours and wears a gold medallion fashioned in the shape of a burning sun . To his right is another elf, this time Sylvan and female. Her brightly coloured clothes have intricate patterns made by different leaves falling through a crystal clear blue sky. Her silver hair falls in waves around her shoulders and her delightful blue eyes seem to welcome all who look upon them. At the High Elf’s left is a half-elf, dressed in finest mithril with a breast plate bearing the symbol of the rampart horse. His long blonde hair is tied into many plaits so as not to conceal his comeliness. Next to the young half-elf is an much older man, dressed in sack cloth tied at the waste with a knotted rope, his bald pate lowered in respect. Opposite this man is another half-elf. Dressed primarily in greens and browns his light buff-coloured cloak stands out. He has a curious appearance: unkempt, of indeterminate age, hawk nosed and with keen, unblinking black eyes. Two dwarves complete the gathering; sat opposite each other, they resembled each other greatly. Both dressed in mithril coats each has a shield propped against his chair – one with the symbols פּ ן 'סּ and the other б . The most notable difference is that the latter has a 3-pointed, yellow gem encrusted crown. It seems as though the gathering has come to an end. The unkempt half-elf bows politely to the Sylvan elf at the head of the table and say, “I will take care of it my Lady.”

The high elf says, “Study it, we need to know if it is truly his staff ”, he goes on, “All of you are charged with the capture of the Dark Wolf. Bring him before me so that we may discern more of the artefacts that we all seek.”

Interpretation: At a meeting of the Council of Aarda in the 4th Age, Haemrandir takes Lastar’s Staff for study.
