peaks, and the strong steel gate which never rusts joins the towers.  In

iron bars.  In the middle, on the strongest and highest pillar, you see the
emblem of Turgon, the crown of the Hidden Kingdom with diamonds encrusting
its polished surface.  There is no door in this hedge, but as you approach

begins making music, much like a giant harp would.
