	Eärendil
		With the aid of Círdan the Shipwright, Eärendil built a ship, Vingilótë (or Vingilot), which is Quenya for foam-flower.
		Elwing and Eärendil chose to be joined to the Elves; and the Valar took Vingilotë and with Eärendil upon it set it to sail through the sky, with the Silmaril bound upon his brow.
		Now when first Vingilot was set to sail in the seas of heaven, it rose unlooked for, glittering and bright; and the people of Middle-earth beheld it from afar and wondered, and they took it for a sign, and called it Gil-Estel, the Star of High Hope.

	Stories of Arda
		Vingilot responded to them with the enthusiasm of an elven horse – light at hand, agile, willing to please, she danced on the water. Her sails gleamed, reflecting the sun like birds’ wings against the sky. The vessel sang to them, inanimate wood and canvas brought to life.
		Like silver flashes, fish arched from the water, coasting briefly through the air before dipping back beneath the surface. Dozens of them escorted the ship in an exotic display that left the sailors speechless, before finally dwindling away as if they had tired of the sport.
		Vingilot’s hull paled to silver as the salt spray and sunshine leeched the untried freshness from her. Her crew worked in an easy harmony, reefing sails and drawing on halyards to see how she responded to different challenges, finding that Círdan’s vessel rode the waves as easily as a bird floating on the air.
