Having went with his father more than once when he'd been exploring the caves of Valinor for gems and metals Maedhros can't help but give the pick a somewhat disapproving look as well. It is not up to the quality he would have liked either but since it's all they've got it will have to do.

He rubbs his neck slightly in a self-conscious manner. He's rather used to people having too look up at him but he still feels a bit awkward about it when the height difference is so very vast. "Good idea. It would be easier if I had my prostethic hand to help me but I haven't really had an opportunity to get it back yet. If nothing else I'll be able to carry the child on my back on the way up. All we'll need is some rope to secure him to me and I'd do fine with it."

His ears perk up a bit in interest at the offer. "That... that would be mighty kind of you, my friend. Even a simple design would be of great help to me... being without the one that I used back home has been annoying to say the least."
