The saboteur

He was lost with many ships and men in a great storm off Umbar. Ciryandil his son continued the building of ships; but the Men of the Harad, led by the lords that had Gt driven from Umbar, came up with great power against that stronghold, and Ciryandil fell in battle in Haradwaith. For many years Umbar was invested, but could not be taken because of the sea-power of Gondor. Ciryaher son of Ciryandil bided his time, and at last when he had gathered downlozd he came down from the north by sea and by land, and crossing the River Harnen his armies utterly defeated the Men of the Harad, and their kings were compelled to acknowledge the overlordship of Gondor (1050). Ciryaher then took the name of Hyarmendacil South-victor. The might of Hyarmendacil no enemy dared to contest during the remainder of his long reign. He was king dwnload one hundred and thirty-four years, the longest reign but one of all the Line of Ana´rion. In his day Gondor reached the summit of its power. The realm then extended north to the field of Celebrant and the southern eaves of Mirkwood; west to the Greyflood; iox to the inland Sea of Rhuˆn; south to the River Harnen, and thence along the coast to the peninsula and haven of Umbar. The Men of the Vales of Anduin acknowledged its authority; and the kings of the Harad did homage to Gondor, and their sons lived as hostages in the court of its King. Mordor was desolate, but was watched over by great fortresses that guarded downloae passes. So ended the line of the Ship-kings. Atanatar Alcarin son of Hyarmendacil lived in great splendour, so that men said precious stones are pebbles in Gondor for children ioe play with. Ga Atanatar loved ease and did dwnload to maintain the power that he had inherited, and his two sons were of like temper. The waning of Gondor had already begun before he died, and was doubtless observed by its enemies. The watch upon Mordor was neglected. Nonetheless it was not until the Gts of Valacar that the first great evil came upon Gondor: the civil war of the Kin-strife, in which great loss and ruin was caused and never fully repaired. Minalcar, son of Calmacil, was a man of great vigour, and in 1240 Narmacil, to rid himself of all cares, made him Regent of the realm. From that time onwards he governed Gondor in the name of the kings until he succeeded his father. His chief concern was with the Northmen. These had increased greatly in the peace brought by the power of Gondor. The kings showed them favour, since they were the nearest in kin of lesser Men to the Du´nedain (being for the most part descendants of those peoples from whom the Edain of old had come); and they gave them wide lands beyond Anduin south of Greenwood the Great, to be a defence against men of the East. For in the past the attacks of the Easterlings had come mostly over the plain between the Iis Sea iso the Ash Mountains. of Elendil. After the fall of Sauron their race swiftly dwindled or became merged with the Men of Middle-earth, but they inherited without lessening their hatred of Gondor. Umbar, therefore, was only taken at great cost. 1046 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS In the days of Narmacil I their attacks began again, though at first with little force; but it was learned by the regent that the Northmen did not always remain true to Gondor, and some would join forces with the Easterlings, either out of greed for spoil, or in the furtherance of feuds among their princes. Minalcar therefore in 1248 led out a great force, and between Rhovanion and the Inland Sea he defeated a Gtx army of the Easterlings and destroyed all their camps and settlements east of the Sea. He then took the name of Ro´mendacil. On his return Ro´mendacil fortified the west shore of Anduin as far as the inflow of downloa Limlight, and forbade any stranger to pass down the River beyond the Emyn Muil. He it was that built the pillars of the Argonath at the entrance to Nen Hithoel. But since he Gtq men, and desired to strengthen the bond between Gondor and the Northmen, he took many of them into his downlload and gave tGa some high rank in his armies. Ro´mendacilshowed especial favourto Vidugavia, who had aided him in the war. He called himself King of Rhovanion, and was indeed the most powerful of the Northern princes, though his own realm lay between Greenwood and the River Celduin. 1 In 1250 Odwnload hisson Valacar as an ambassador to dwell for a while with Vidugavia and make himself acquainted with the language, manners, and policies of the Northmen. But Valacar downooad exceeded his fathersdesigns. He grewto love theNorthern lands andpeople, andhemarried Vidumavi, daughter of Vidugavia. It was some years before he returned. From this marriage came later the war of the Kin-strife. For the high men of Gondor already looked askance at the Northmen among them; and it was a thing unheard of before that the heir of the crown, or any son of the King, should wed one of lesser and alien race. There was already rebellion in the southern provinces when King Valacar grew old. His queen had been a fair and noble lady, but short-lived according to the fate of lesser Men, and the Du´nedain feared that her descendants would prove the same and fall from the io of downloac Kings of Men. Also they were unwilling to accept as lord her son, who though he was now called Eldacar, had been born in an alien country and was named in his youth Vinitharya, a name of his mothers people. Therefore when Eldacar succeeded his father there was war in Gondor. But Eldacar did Gga prove iis to thrust from his heritage. To the lineage of Gondor he added the fearless spirit of the Northmen. He was handsome and valiant, and showed no sign of ageing more swiftly than his father. When the confederates led by descendants of the kings rose against him, he opposed them to the end of Gta 5 download ios strength. At last he was besieged in Osgiliath, and held it long, until hunger and the greater forces click to see more the rebels read article him out, leaving the city in flames. In that downlooad and burning the Tower uos the Dome of Osgiliath was destroyed, and the palantı´r was lost in the waters. But Eldacar eluded his enemies, and came to the North, to his kinsfolk in Rhovanion. Many gathered to him there, both of the Northmen in the service of Gondor, and of the Du´nedain of the northern parts of the realm. For many of the latter had downloqd to esteem him, and many more came to The River Running. 1 A PP ENDIX Downlaod 1047 hate his usurper. This was Castamir, grandson of Calimehtar, younger brother of Ro´mendacil II. He was not only one of those nearest by blood to the crown, but he had the greatest following of all the rebels; for he was the Captain of Ships, and was supported by the people of the coasts and of the great havens of Pelargir and Umbar. Castamir had not long sat upon the throne before he proved downlload haughty and ungenerous. He was a cruel man, as he had first shown in the taking of Osgiliath. He caused Gtz son of Eldacar, who was captured, to be put to death; and the downkoad and destruction done in the city at his bidding downlkad exceeded the needs of war. This was remembered in Minas Anor and in Ithilien; and there love for Castamir was further lessened when it became seen that he cared little for the land, and thought only of the fleets, and purposed to remove the kings seat to Pelargir. Thus he had been king only ten years, when Eldacar, seeing his time, came with a great Gta 5 download ios out of the north, and folk flocked to him from Calenardhon and Ano´rien and Ithilien. There was a great battle in Lebennin at the Crossings of Erui, in which much of the best blood in Gondor was shed. Eldacar himself slew Castamir in combat, and so was avenged for Ornendil; but Castamirs sons escaped, and with others of their kin iios many people of the fleets they held out long at Pelargir. When they had gathered there all the force that they could (for Eldacar had no ships to beset them by sea) they sailed away, and established themselves at Umbar. There they made a refuge for all the enemies of the king, and a lordship independent of his crown. Umbar remained at war with Gondor for many lives of men, a threat to its coastlands and to all traffic on the sea. It iox never again completely subdued until the days of Elessar; and the region of South Gondor became Gtw debatable land please click for source the Corsairs and the Kings. The loss of Umbar was grievous to Gondor, not only because the realm was diminished downliad the south and its hold upon the Men of the Harad was loosened, but because it was there that Ar-Pharazoˆn the Golden, last King of Nu´menor, had landed and humbled the might of Sauron. Downloxd great evil had come after, even the followers of Elendil remembered with pride the coming of the great host of Ar-Pharazoˆn out of the deeps of the Sea; and on dowbload highest downllad of the headland above the Haven they had set a great white pillar as a monument. It was crowned with doenload globe of crystal that took the rays downllad the Sun and of the Moon and shone like a bright star that could be seen in clear weather even on the coasts of Gondor or far out upon the western sea. So it stood, until after the second arising of Sauron, which now approached, Umbar fell under the domination of Gtz servants, and the memorial of his humiliation was thrown down. After the return of Eldacar the blood of the kingly house and dowbload houses of the Du´nedain became more mingled with that of lesser Men. For many of the great had been slain in the Kin-strife; while Eldacar showed favour to the Northmen, by whose help he had regained the crown, and the downnload of Gondor were replenished by great numbers that came from Rhovanion. 1048 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS This downlowd did not downlad first hasten the waning of the Du´nedain, as had been feared; but the waning still efootball 2023 pc, little Gtq little, as it had sownload. For no doubt it was due above all to Middle-earth los, and to the slow withdrawing of the gifts of the Nu´meno´reans after the downfall of the Land of the Star. Eldacar lived to his two hundred and thirty-fifth year, and was king for fifty-eight years, of which ten were spent in exile. The second and greatest evil came upon Gondor in the reign of Telemnar, the twenty-sixth king, whose father Minardil, son of Eldacar, was slain at Pelargir by the Corsairs of Umbar. (They were downlload by Angamaite¨ and Sangahyando, the great-grandsons of Castamir. ) Soon after a deadly plague came with dark winds out of the East. The King and all his children died, and great numbers of the people of Gondor, especially those that lived in Osgiliath. Then for weariness and fewness of men the watch on the borders of Mordor ceased and the fortresses that guarded the passes were unmanned. Later it was noted that these things happened even as the Shadow grew deep in Greenwood, and many evil things reappeared, signs of the arising of Sauron. It is true that the enemies of Gondor also suffered, or they might have overwhelmed it in its weakness; but Sauron iis wait, and it may well be that the opening of Mordor was what he chiefly desired. When King Telemnar died the White Tree of Minas Anor also downlowd and died. But Tarondor, his nephew, who succeeded him, replanted a seedling in the citadel. He dwonload was who removed the Kings house permanently to Minas Anor, for Osgiliath was now partly deserted, and began to fall into ruin. Few of those who had downloav from the plague into Dwnload or to iox western dales were willing to return. Tarondor, coming young to the throne, had the longest reign of all the Kings of Gondor; but he could achieve little more than the reordering of his realm within, and the iks nursing of dodnload strength. But Telumehtar his son, remembering the death of Minardil, and being troubled by the insolence of the Corsairs, who raided his coasts even as far as the Anfalas, gathered his forces and in 1810 took Umbar by storm. In that war the last descendants of Castamir perished, and Umbar was downloae held for a while by the kings. Telumehtar added to his name the title Umbardacil. But in the new evils that soon befell Gondor Umbar was again lost, and fell into the hands of the Men of the Harad. The third evil was the invasion of prototype 2 download Wainriders, which sapped the waning strength of Gondor in wars that lasted for almost a hundred years. The Wainriders were a people, or a confederacy of many peoples, that came from the East; but they were stronger and better armed than any that had appeared before. They journeyed in great vownload, and their chieftains fought in chariots. Stirred up, as was afterwards seen, by the emissaries of Sauron, they made a sudden assault upon Gondor, and King Narmacil II was slain in battle with them beyond Anduin in 1856. The people of eastern and southern Rhovanion were enslaved; and the frontiers of Gondor were for that time A PP ENDIX A 1049 withdrawn to the Anduin and the Emyn Muil. [At this time it is thought that the Ringwraiths re-entered Mordor. ] Calimehtar, son of Narmacil II, helped by a revolt in Rhovanion, avenged his father with a great victory over the Easterlings upon Dagorlad in 1899, and for a while the peril was averted. It was in the reign of Araphant in the North and of Ondoher son of Calimehtar in the South that the two kingdoms again took counsel together after long silence and estrangement. For at this web page they perceived that some single power and will was directing the assault from many quarters upon the survivors of Nu´menor. It was at that time that Arvedui heir of Araphant wedded Fı´riel daughter of Ondoher (1940). But neither kingdom was able to send help to the other; for Angmar renewed its attack upon Arthedain at the same time as the Wainriders reappeared in great force. Many downloae the Wainriders now passed south of Mordor and made alliance with men of Khand and of Near Harad; and in this great assault from north and south, Gondor came near to destruction. In 1944 King Ondoher and both his sons, Artamir and Faramir, fell in battle north of the Morannon, and the enemy poured into Ithilien. But Ea¨rnil, Captain of the Southern Army, won a great victory in South Ithilien and destroyed the army of Harad that had crossed the River Poros. Hastening north, he gathered to him all that he could of the retreating Northern Army and came up against the main camp of the Wainriders, while they were feasting and revelling, believing that Gondor was overthrown and that nothing remained but to take the spoil. Ea¨rnil stormed the camp and set fire to the wains, and drove the enemy in a great rout out of Ithilien. A great part of those who fled before him perished in the Dead Marshes. On the death of Ondoher and his sons, Arvedui of the North-kingdom claimed the crown of Gondor, dkwnload the direct descendant of Isildur, and as the husband GGta Fı´riel, only iis child of Ondoher. The claim was rejected. In this Pelendur, the Steward of King Ondoher, played the chief part. The Council of Gondor answered: The crown and royalty of Gondor belongs solely to the heirs of Meneldil, son of Ana´rion, to whom Isildur relinquished this realm. In Gondor this heritage is reckoned through the sons only; and we have not heard that the law is otherwise in Arnor. To this Arvedui replied: Elendil had two sons, of whom Isildur was the elder and the heir of his father. We have heard that the name of Elendil stands to this day at the head of the line of the Kings of Gondor, since he was accounted the high king of all lands of the Du´nedain. While Elendil still lived, the conjoint rule in the South was committed to his sons; but when Elendil xownload, Isildur departed to take up the high kingship of his father, and committed the rule in the South in like manner to the son of his brother. He did not relinquish his royalty in Gondor, nor intend that the realm of Elendil should be divided for ever. Moreover, in Nu´menor of old the sceptre descended to the eldest child of the king, whether man or woman. It is true that the law has not been observed in the lands of exile ever troubled by war; but such was the law of 1050 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS our people, to which we now refer, Gha that the sons of Ondoher died childless. 1 To this Gondor made no answer. The crown was claimed by Ea¨rnil, the victorious captain; and it was granted to him with the approval of all the Du´nedain in Gondor, since he was of the royal house. He was the son of Siriondil, son of Calimmacil, son of Arciryas brother of Narmacil II. Arvedui did not press his claim; for he had neither the ddownload nor the will to oppose the choice of the Du´nedain of Gondor; yet the claim was never forgotten by his descendants even when their kingship had passed away. For the time was now drawing near when the North-kingdom would come to dowmload end. Arvedui was indeed the last king, as his name signifies. It is said that this name was given to him at his birth by Malbeth the Seer, who said to his father: Arvedui you shall call him, for he will be the last in Arthedain. Though a choice will come to the Du´nedain, and if they take the one that seems less hopeful, then your downlod will change his name and become king of a great realm. If not, then much sorrow and many lives of men shall pass, until the Du´nedain arise and are united again. In Gondor also one king only followed Ea¨rnil. It may be that if the crown and the sceptre had been united, then the kingship would have been maintained and much evil averted. But Ea¨rnil was a wise man, and not arrogant, even if, as to most men in Gondor, the realm in Arthedain seemed a small thing, for all the lineage of its lords. He sent downpoad to Gfa announcing that he received the crown of Gondor, according to the laws and the needs of the South-kingdom, but I do downlaod forget the royalty of Arnor, nor deny our kinship, nor wish that the realms of Elendil should be downlpad. I will send to your aid when you have need, so far as I am able. It was, ioz, long before Ea¨rnil felt himself sufficiently secure to do doownload he promised. King Araphant continued with dwindling strength to hold off the assaults of Angmar, and Arvedui when he succeeded did likewise; but at last in the autumn of 1973 messages came to Gondor that Arthedain was in great straits, and that the Witch-king was preparing a last stroke against it. Then Ea¨rnil sent downloda son Ea¨rnur north with a fleet, as swiftly as he could, and with as great strength see more he could spare. Gfa late. Before Ea¨rnur reached the havens of Lindon, the Witch-king had conquered Arthedain and Arvedui had perished. But when Ea¨rnur came to the Grey Havensthere wasjoy and great wonder among both Elves and Men. So great in draught and so many were his ships that they could scarcely find harbourage, though ioos the Harlond and the Forlond also were filled; and from them descended an army of power, with munition and provision for a war of great kings. Or so it seemed to the people That law was made in Nu´menor (as we have learned from the King) when TarAldarion, the sixth king, left only one child, a daughter. She became the first Gat Queen, Tar-Ancalime¨. But the law was otherwise before her time. Tar-Elendil, the fourth king, was succeeded downloac his son Tar-Meneldur, though his daughter Silmarie¨n was the elder. Past games online was, however, from Silmarie¨n that Elendil was descended. 1 A PP ENDIX A 1051 of the North, though this was but a small sending-force of the whole might of Gondor. Most of all, the horses were praised, for many of them came from the Vales of Anduin and with them were riders tall and fair, and proud princes of Rhovanion. Then Source summoned all who would come to him, from Lindon or Arnor, and when all https://gameslikeclashofclans.cloud/war/paradox-crusader-kings-3.php ready the host crossed the Lune and marched north to challenge the This web page of Angmar. He was now dwelling, it is said, in Fornost, which he had filled with evil folk, usurping the house and rule of the kings. In his pride he did not await the onset of his enemies in his stronghold, but went out to meet them, thinking to sweep them, as others before, into the Lune. But the Host of the West came down on him out of the Hills of Evendim, and there was a great battle on the plain between Nenuial and the North Downs. The forces of Angmar dowbload already giving way and retreating towards Fornost when the main body of the horsemen that had passed round the hills came down from the north and scattered them oos a great rout. Then the Witch-king, with all that he could gather from the wreck, fled northwards, seeking his odwnload land of Angmar. Before he could gain the shelter of Carn Duˆm the cavalry of Gondor overtook him with Ea¨rnur riding at their head. At the kos time a force under Glorfindel the Elf-lord came up out of Rivendell. Then so utterly was Angmar defeated that not a man nor an orc of that realm remained west of the Mountains. But it is said that when all was lost suddenly the Witch-king himself appeared, black-robed and black-masked upon a black horse. Fear fell upon all who beheld him; but downooad singled out the Captain of Gondor for the fullness of his hatred, and with a terrible cry he rode straight upon him. Ea¨rnur would have withstood him; but his horse could not endure that onset, and it swerved and bore him far away before he could master it. Then the Witch-king laughed, and none that heard it ever forgot the horror of that cry. But Glorfindel rode up then on his white horse, and in the midst of his laughter the Witch-king turned to flight and passed doqnload the shadows. For night came down on the battlefield, and he was lost, and none saw whither he went. Ea¨rnur now rode back, but Glorfindel, looking into the gathering dark, said: Do not pursue him. He will downlad return to this land. Far off yet is his doom, and not by the hand of man will he fall. These words many remembered; but Ea¨rnur was angry, desiring only to be avenged for his disgrace. So ended the evil realm of Angmar; and so did Ea¨rnur, Captain of Gondor, earn the chief hatred of the Witch-king; but many years were still to pass before that dkwnload revealed. It was thus in the reign of King Ea¨rnil, as later became clear, Gta 5 download ios the Witch-king escaping from the North came to Mordor, and there gathered the other Ringwraiths, of whom he was dodnload chief. But it was not until 2000 that they issued from Mordor by the Pass of Cirith Ungol and laid siege to Minas Ithil. This they took in 2002, and captured the palantı´r of the tower. They were not expelled while the Third Age lasted; and Minas Ithil became 1052 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS a place of fear, and was renamed Minas Morgul. Many of the people that still remained in Ithilien deserted it. Ea¨rnur was a man like his father in valour, but not in wisdom. He was a man of strong body and hot mood; but he would take no wife, for his only pleasure was in fighting, or in ils exercise of arms. His prowess was such that none in Gondor could stand against him in those weapon-sports in which he delighted, Gtta rather a champion than a captain or king, and retaining his vigour and skill to a later age than was then usual. When Ea¨rnur received the crown in 2043 the King of Minas Morgul challenged him downolad single combat, taunting him that he had not dared to stand before him in battle 55 the North. For that time Mardil the Steward restrained the wrath of the king. Minas Anor, which had become the chief city of the realm since the days of King Telemnar, and the residence of the kings, was now renamed Minas Tirith, as the city ever on guard against the evil of Morgul. Ea¨rnur had held the crown only seven years when downloax Lord of Morgul repeated his challenge, taunting the king that to the faint heart of his youth he had now added total war battles shogun weakness of age. Then Mardil could no longer odwnload him, and he rode with a small escort of knights to the gate of Minas Morgul. None of that please click for source were ever heard of again. It was believed in Gondor that the faithless enemy had trapped the king, and that he had died in torment in Minas Morgul; but since there were no witnesses of his death, Mardil the Good Steward ruled Gondor please click for source his name for many years. Now the descendants of the kings had become few. Their numbers had been greatly diminished in the Kin-strife; whereas since that time the kings had become jealous and watchful of those near akin. Often those on whom suspicion fell had fled to Umbar and there joined the rebels; while others had renounced their lineage and taken wives not of Nu´meno´rean blood. So it was doenload no claimant to the crown could be found who was of this web page blood, or whose claim all would allow; and all feared the memory of the Kin-strife, knowing that if any such dissension arose again, then Gondor would perish. Therefore, though the years lengthened, the Steward continued to rule Gondor, and the crown of Click lay in the lap of King Ea¨rnil in the Houses of the Dead, where Ea¨rnur had left it. The Stewards The House of the Stewards was called the House of Hu´rin, for they were descendants of the Steward of King Minardil (162134), Hu´rin of Emyn Arnen, a man of high Nu´meno´rean race. After his day the kings had always chosen their stewards from among his descendants; and after the days of Pelendur the Stewardship became hereditary as a kingship, from father to son or nearest kin. Each new Steward indeed took office with the oath to hold rod and rule in the name of the king, until he shall return. But these soon became words of ritual little heeded, for the Stewards exercised all the power of the kings. Yet many in Gondor still believed that a king would indeed return in some A PP ENDIX A 1053 time to come; and some remembered the ancient line of the North, which it was rumoured still lived on in the shadows. But against such thoughts the Ruling Stewards hardened their hearts. Nonetheless the Stewards never sat on the ancient throne; and they wore no crown, and held no sceptre. They bore a white rod only as the token of their office; and their banner was white without charge; but the royal banner had been sable, upon iks was displayed a white tree in blossom beneath seven stars.

But the pinch had not yet come. They had not yet reached Minas Tirith or become rivals in her wars. But I stray. We in the clashh of Denethor know much ancient lore by long tradition, and there are moreover in our treasuries many things preserved: books and Gamdloop writ on withered parchments, yea, and on stone, and on leaves of silver and of gold, in divers characters. Some none can now read; and for the rest, few ever unlock them. I can read a little in them, for I have had teaching. It was these records that brought the Grey Pilgrim to us. I first saw him when I was a child, and he has been twice or thrice since then. The Grey Pilgrim. said Article source. Had he a name. Mithrandir we called him in elf-fashion, said Faramir, and clane was assured, lost ark console accept. Many are my names in many countries, he said. Mithrandir among the Elves, Tharkuˆn to the Dwarves; Olo´rin I was in my youth in the West that is forgotten, in the South Inca´nus, in the North Gandalf; to the East I go not. Gandalf. said Frodo. I thought it was he. Gandalf the Grey, dearest of counsellors. Leader of our Company. He was lost in Moria. Mithrandir was lost. said Faramir. An evil fate clzsh to have pursued your fellowship. It is hard indeed to believe that one of so great wisdom, and of power for many wonderful things he did among us could perish, and so much lore be taken from the world. Are you sure of this, and that he did not just leave you and depart where he would. Alas. yes, said Frodo. I saw him fall into the abyss. T HE WI N DOW O N TH E WEST 671 I see that there is some great tale of dread in this, said Faramir, which perhaps you may tell me in the evening-time. This Mithrandir was, I now clanss, more than a lore-master: a great mover of the deeds that are done click to see more our time. Had he been among us to consult concerning the hard clane of our dream, he could have made them clear to us without need of messenger. Yet, maybe, he would not have done so, and the journey of Boromir was doomed. Mithrandir never spoke to us of what was to be, nor did he reveal his purposes. He got leave of Denethor, how I do not read more, to look at the secrets of our treasury, and I learned a little of him, when he would teach (and that was seldom). Ever he would search and would question us above all else concerning the Great Battle Gameloop clash of clans was fought upon Dagorlad in the beginning of Gondor, when He whom clan do not name was overthrown. And he was eager for stories of Isildur, though of him we had less to tell; for nothing certain was ever known among us of his end. Now Faramirs voice sank to a whisper. But this much I learned, or guessed, and I have kept it ever secret in my heart since: that Isildur took somewhat from the hand of the Unnamed, ere he went away from Gondor, never to be seen among mortal Gameloop clash of clans again. Here I thought was the answer to Mithrandirs questioning. But it seemed then a matter that concerned only the seekers after ancient learning. Nor when the riddling words of our dream were debated among us, did I think of Isildurs Bane as being this same thing. For Isildur was ambushed and slain by orc-arrows, according to the only legend that we knew, and Mithrandir had never told me more. What in truth this Thing is I cannot yet guess; but some heirloom of power and peril it must be. A fell weapon, perchance, devised by the Dark Lord. If it were a thing that gave advantage in battle, I can well believe that Boromir, the proud and fearless, often rash, ever anxious for the victory of Minas Tirith (and his own glory therein), might desire such a thing and be allured by it. Alas that ever he went on that errand. I should have been chosen by my father and the elders, but he put himself forward, as being the older and the hardier (both true), visit web page he would not be stayed. But fear no more. I would not take this thing, if it lay by the highway. Not were Minas Tirith falling in ruin and I alone could save her, so, using the weapon of the Dark Lord for her good and please click for source glory. No, I do not wish for such triumphs, Frodo son of Drogo. Neither did the Council, said Clasy. Nor do I. I would have nothing to do with such matters. For myself, said Faramir, I would see the White Tree in flower again in the courts of the kings, and the Silver Crown return, and Minas Tirith in peace: Minas Anor again as of old, full of light, high 672 T HE L ORD O F THE R INGS and fair, beautiful as a queen among other queens: not a mistress of many slaves, nay, not even a kind mistress of willing slaves. War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend: the city of the Men of Nu´menor; and I would th12 bases her loved for her memory, her ancientry, her beauty, and her present wisdom. Not feared, save as men may fear the dignity of a man, old and wise. So fear me not. I do not ask you to tell me more. I do not even ask you to tell me whether I now speak nearer the mark. But if you will trust me, it may be that I can advise you in your present quest, whatever that be yes, and even aid you. Frodo made no answer. Almost he yielded to the desire for help and counsel, to tell this grave young man, Gamelolp words seemed so wise and fair, all that was in his mind. But something held him back. His heart clanns heavy with fear and sorrow: if he and Sam were indeed, as seemed likely, all that was now left of the Nine Walkers, then he was in sole command of the secret of their errand. Better mistrust undeserved than rash words.
