If Gil-Galad had been descended from Fingolfin, then the High Kingship should have gone from Fingon to Gil-Galad (his alleged son in the sil.) It didn't. It went from Fingon to Turgon, his brother.

Oh, and:

The Silmarillion. Of the Sun and the Moon and the Hiding of Valinor (pg 99):

These Yavanna took; and then the Trees died, and their lifeless stems stand yet in Valinor, a memorial of vanished joy. But the flower and the fruit Yavanna gave to Aulë, and Manwë hallowed them, and Aulë and his people made vessels to hold them and preserve their radiance: as is said in the Narsilion, the Song of the Sun and Moon.

Nazgul

Yes Narsil/Anduril does gleam with red and white fire.Now is that dwarf smithing tecnology or high elven? Does it always gleam or does it need the light of the sun and moon to do so?Like glamdring,sting and orcrist need enemys near to have a gleam.It is a very interesting question that ican't seem to get a straight answer on.
