According to my Modding - union progress, it seems that currently I am "Elronds Berater" (Elrond's adviser)  ... it quite fits. xD

It's true :)
And I am an Elven Pilgrim, a Pilgrim headed to Aman I hope  :)

I am just thinking openly ... about three elven rings, we have nice indications concerning Narya:

--- Zitat ---It is described as having the power to inspire others to resist tyranny, as well as (in common with the other Three Rings) hiding the wielder from remote observation (except by the wielder of the One) and giving resistance to the weariness of time:

"Take this ring, master," he said, "for your labours will be heavy; but it will support you in the weariness that you have taken upon yourself. For this is the Ring of Fire, and with it you may rekindle hearts in a world that grows chill."
― Círdan the Shipwright
--- Ende Zitat ---

And concerning Nenya as well:

--- Zitat ---Nenya's power was preservation, protection, and concealment from evil.
--- Ende Zitat ---
or

--- Zitat ---The power of this Ring strengthened and beautified the realm of Lothlórien
--- Ende Zitat ---
etc.

We have already stated in this thread that we really like Edain implementation of that rings (Narya provides strong supports and Nenya provides massive protection).

But we have no information concerning Vilya and effect of that ring.
So we should build on this and general sentence?

--- Zitat ---They were forged by Celebrimbor and his smiths with the desire of "understanding, making, and healing" and granted the power to preserve all things unstained.
--- Ende Zitat ---

I've already implemented Vilya as a ring of recovering/healing into my proposal, but maybe we should work with words "understanding" and "making" as well. What do you think? :)

Logical analysis  :)

Vilya is the strongest of the Three, and it generally sums up all the shared elements and characteristics of these Rings of Power, completely untainted from the evil influence of Sauron; the common elements are, of course, their focus on healing and preserving in many different ways, that depend on whom wields them and how it does it  :)


Narya preserves the Hope and the Will of Freedom against any form of tyranny, Nenya the Joy, the Bliss and the Timeless Atmosphere of the place in which it is kept.
Vilya has a similar power to Nenya, resembling the Splendour of Eressëa or even Valinor itself, as if Rivendell were a 'mortal reflection' of the Undying Lands; and Vilya, most importantly, is kept by Elrond, who is arguably the best Healer of Middle Earth.
Elrond's powers are mainly focused on healing and recovering, and that's why I totally prefer and support a display of this kind of Vilya, rather than a problematic destructive power as it is the whirlwind; destructive potential that Elrond can already use via his Flood power, totally covered by the lore, by the way  :)

Also, I would add another significant passage about Nenya  ;)
These are the exact words of Galadriel to Frodo in FOTR (book).


--- Zitat --- `I know what it was that you last saw,' she said; `for that is also in my mind. Do not be afraid! But do not think that only by singing amid the trees, nor even by the slender arrows of elven-bows, is this land of Lothlórien maintained and defended against its Enemy. I say to you, Frodo, that even as I speak to you, I perceive the Dark Lord and know his mind, or all of his mind that concerns the Elves. And he gropes ever to see me and my thought. But still the door is closed! '
--- Ende Zitat ---


--- Zitat ---`Yes,' she said, divining his thought, `it is not permitted to speak of it, and Elrond could not do so. But it cannot be hidden from the Ring-bearer, and one who has seen the Eye. Verily it is in the land of Lórien upon the finger of Galadriel that one of the Three remains. This is Nenya, the Ring of Adamant, and I am its keeper.
`He suspects, but he does not know - not yet. Do you not see now wherefore your coming is to us as the footstep of Doom? For if you fail, then we are laid bare to the Enemy. Yet if you succeed, then our power is diminished, and Lothlórien will fade, and the tides of Time will sweep it away. We must depart into the West, or dwindle to a rustic folk of dell and cave, slowly to forget and to be forgotten.'
--- Ende Zitat ---

The powers of Nenya involve kilometres of lands and hundreds of years, and the Ring of Adamant is clearly also the source of the military and magical Protection of the Golden Wood by the malicious influence of Sauron.
Galadriel admits it, the chants among the trees and the bows of the brave people of her realm are not enough to resist; the effects of Nenya are mainly physical, focused on the physical environment and realm of Lothlórien (greatest definition of Magic in Tolkien), as Galadriel's Magic modifies and manipulates the surrounding Weather, creating an unnatural Calmness in a dark and dangerous territory (Southern Mirkwood).

And we surely know that Galadriel likes creating Whirlwinds/Storms and magical Mists, while Elrond prefers the Water  8-)
