Ed de facto ielg nov Royschalk, kun is assumpsit sien amt, swohr kassam de « mantines id scepter ed id Loy in id nam ios Roy, ed tiel id reiken ios Roy » Bet mox buir ta werds « tiel id reiken ios Roy » neid meis quem un ritual formule, aun effective vyige, iesghi Royschalks bug vasya maghs iom Roys.

In-kap gnohr un pridemsprist, eetghi id tid ios Vigilant Pace, unte-yod Sauron tup, arct ab id magh ios Albh Concil, ed i Ringdrukhs remien kohlen in Morguldal. Bet ab id gouvernement os Denethor Ist neti buit bruct un druv pace, ed hatta kun Gondor ne eet in ouvert weir, ids grances buir dayim-ye menacen.

Her inkapt Cirions long waldh. Is eet clever ed prudent wir, bet tuntos restrigen eet id stieure Gondors, ed Ciriono ne ghohd kwehre meis quem defende ids grances, menxu eys peinds (au id augos quod agihsit i) ei preparit cutts is khiek pare. I Corsars henseleer ids causta, yed id magno danger gwohmit nordtos. In ia vast lands os Rhovanion, inter Deusklays ed Argdehnu, gwivit taiper un gver irk alnos submitten ad Dol Guldurs teniwaldh.

Sub Berens waldh, nevdemt Royschalk, un dar-ye graver perile menacit Gondor. Tri staur squaders, fanzowus ub ex Umbar ed Harad, hajoumeer gwis-ye Gondors causta, ed i peinds liend in plur stets, hatta tem nord quem Isens wostia.

Bet in Gondor, suder quem id Gabehrg, buit minter paytten, ed pre wergumt, Beregond Berenson hieb vicen i lahtors. Is fauran bud Rohan khalassims. Eet, pon Boromir, is megsto korion qui hieb-se aiwo revelet in Gondor, ed kun is successit sien pater (2763), Gondor miegh restablie sien stieure. Bet Rohan eeganeisiet lenter ud sien vurnsa, ed bi tod sabab Beren suaprim Saruman ed ei betrus ia cleicha os Orthanc, ed ab anno 2759, Saruman gwivit in Isengard.

Kun Belecthor II, is dwogimoint Royschalk mohr, mars idschi Kwito Dru os Minas Tirith, bet id buit likwn stahndo « tiel id reiken ios Roy », khiekit ghi bihe trohven semens.
Sub id waldh os Tûrin II, Gondors peinds iter proieg, Sauron ghi hieb recupert siena maghs ed proschgwohm id dien kun is vahsit revele sien presence. Quanti, ploisko i boltsti, fug ex Ithilien ed sgwohm wester, ocolo id Anduin, todghi preter land eet infesten ab Mordorks. Nu-gadabihsit Tûrin pro sien yeudmens, in Ithilien, secret refuges, ex qua Henneth Annûn, quer diu is tin un garnison in alerte. Is fortificit idschi wertu Cair Andros (nam quod maynt « Longspoimo Nav », idghi insule hieb id skeip unios mier nav speicend nordworts med sien hog bug blaycht ab ia volns ios Anduin schiaund ep ia rockic aks) kay defende Anorien. Bet id magno menace gwohm sudtos quer i Haradrim hieb occupet Sudgondor ed quer ia katus rierz engwn id Poros.
Kun staur armees lahr Ithilien, Roy Folcwine os Rohan gwup Eorls Oit ed pieyghit sien dulg ad Beregond qui hieb yisen do eys khalass mult wighs do Gondor. Med ir hehlp, Tûrin sohl un boi nieb ia Poros Pords, bet bo sons os Folcwine buir nict in katu. Ies Reiders sepul iens sekwent id swohd irs folk, ed ies lyehge nieb mutu sub id sam kurgan, eentghi yembraters. Diu stahsit id kurgan kalt Haudh in Gwanur ep id uber ouper ios fluv, ed Gondors peinds redwoieer gwehme pri.
Turgon success Tûrin, bet de iom biht bilhassa mohmt od, dwo yars pre eys mohrt, Sauron manifestit-se iter se declarend-ye ouvert-ye, ed is penetrit Mordor quod hieb diutos wohrcto pro iom. Ed iter meis buir ia ruines os Barad-dûr redohmen, ed Fatghyor emsit tsay flamme, ed i sensti os Ithilien fug dalgtro. Kun Turgon mohr, Saruman lambh Isengard pro se, ed fortificit id.
Echtelion II Turgonson eet un suaradh wir. Med id reste os magh is behans, is enderghens kardwne sien rig protie ia incursions os Mordor. Is incitit vasyens wirtic menscens, samt quodkwe origin, ad service iom, ed tim qui beviseer ses drudmans, adnohm is un exaltet rang ed sanbawihsit i med favors. Pro maungs om sien actions brug is imdadh ed radhs unios megil korion is kiemit meis quem ceter, Thorongil eet is kalt in Gondor, yani Starornd, isghi eet prompt ed hieb skarp vid, ed vohs un argwrnten star ep sieno mantel, yed nimen wois eys druv nam ni in quod vatan is hieb gnaht. Is gwohm ex Rohan quer is hieb servet ad Roy Thengel, bet is eet neis Rohirrim. Is siegv ammer menscens, landi ed mari, yed is vanicit sem dien do id skadh quetos is hieb surrect, hatta pre Echtelions regne ens.
Baygh ops, Thorongil eedidaht sien radhs ad Ecthelion, saygend od id force im rebells os Umbar skip un grave danger pro Gondor, ed uno menace pro ia Sudfiefs, ed uno mahibe tehrg sei aiwo Saruman karrariet un ouvert weir. Bad is Royschalk ei ijieb quo is volit, ed so siemmel un pau significant flottille, ed lambh Umbar per surprise, unte swordst noct, prodahnd ad brand pelu corsar navs, ed ep ia quies katuit is corps-ad-corps contra iom Schabender, ed gvohn iom, poskwo sgwohm con sien flotte, subeihnvs tik minim leusa. Bet kun is rik Pelargir, maung leuds buir gomret ed stauniht ab eys refuse os gwehme tsay do Minas Tirith, quer megil honors intizier iom.
Ad Echtelion yisit is un pawiropeku message, saygend : « Alya taska me beudent taiper, Swamen, ed mi esti zaruri drehde maung periles ed ordeils pre rikes Gondor, sei talg sessiet mieno meinyun. » Quayque nimen ghohd tarke quo consisteer cia taska, ni qualg injunctions is obedih, woiseer bariem quetro gwahsit. Isghi hieb uperern id Anduin abord un bark, ed ter, saygus pawiropekus ad sien sokwis, hieb is nakwohr sien khalwani itner, ed kun is buit dyohrct ye id senst ker, is gress, spehcend kyid Skadhgabehrg.
Thorongils asimat xubh disarroy do id citad, quantims kwohk to uno megil leus, ploisko maghses ad Denethor Echtelionson, taiper un wir matur kay assumpe id bungos os Royschalk, access-yei is quar yars serter, pos id mohrt siens pater.
Denethor II eet un buland, mynder ed bolt wir, ed os royaler apparence quem quanti hiebeer parihn in Gondor pon pelu generations, eti is eet hakime, peluspohc, ed is wois maung de mores ed swohds. De facto, is samkwohk Thorongil kam anghen samkwehct un baygh prokwem kerab, ed lakin is gospoti hieb est ei semper perfert : in id kerd im popule leuds kam in id kehnsen siens pater hieb is occupet tik id dwoter place. Ye tod zaman, kathire buir qui mohn od Thorongil hieb sgwohmt pre eys rival bihsit eys poti, quayque ispet Thorongil hieb naiw iskwn supplante Denethor, ni pretenden ses alyo quem is sloug os eys pater. Ep tik oin pointo differeer ir radhs : pelus hieb Thorongil warnt Echtelion protie Saruman iom Albh in Isengard, ei recommandend anter ke suaprim Gandalf iom Greis. Bet inter Denethor ed Gandalf eet pau affinitat, ed khatem Echtelions regne, is Greis Pelgrin buit minter sellgwohmen do Minas Tirith. Itak, sekwos-ye, kun hol buit exclaren, kathire buir qui credihr od Denethor eet os subtile aum : ed od samt meis tjwowschi ed bassira quem i mensci siens tid, is hieb aunstohgen quis, in druve, eet so gospoti namt Thorongil, ed suspexit od Mithrandir ed so iskweer supplante iom.
Kun Denethor bihsit Royschalk, is obkwohk ses un swamen qui dier id waldh uper quant. Eebaht pau yed eekleut ia dahn radhs, dind eeact sekwent sien wi kehnsen. Is hieb wohden sert-ye (2976), ducend ka esor Finduilas Adrahilsdugter os Dol Amroth. Is eet Dame os Beauteit ed swad in eys kerd, payn men dwodem yars hieb dohnen, ia de mohr. Denethor liubh iam, ye sien weidos, dorgvost-ye quem ceter gohnos ep ardh, ploisko iom ater iom sons ia hieb gohnen ei. Bet sekwent id commun-ye admiss opinion, ia hieb marsen apter ia walls ios Citad, ed hieb degviht kam un flor iom dalins ghyant ibs marbrises degveiht kun bihti transplantet ep id sterpo rock. Id Skadh quod kowpit-se eusti plehsit iam med dekhschat, ed ia eewiwehrt sien spects sudtro, kyid horizont ios Mar ia ghid.
Pos ays mohrt, Denethor bihsit sombrer ed meis silent quem preter, ed eesiseddt diu mon in sien tor, mergen do sien brens, prekheissend od id drehden con Mordor ubgwehmiet sub eys regne. Buit crediht sekwos-ye od gnohskwnd bet mynder per buhsa ed treusend sien wi iser menos, is hieb dursen oismauter do id palantir ios Albh Tor. Neis iom Royschalks hieb aiw emen tod risk, ne hatta Roys Eârnil ed Eârnur, pos id pehden os Minas Ithil, kun Isildurs palantir hieb fallen do ia hands ios Peind, idghi Petra os Minas Tirith eet Anarions palantir anghst-ye accorden tei xihn ab Sauron.
Also hassilit Denethor un intim gnohsa de quanto jinkdousit in eys rig, ed baygh trans ids grances, gnohsa de quod eys folk stieun, bet is eepayghiet dorgv ar pelu didrehdend Sauron, is bihsit alnos decrepit prematur-ye. Ed eys gururo crohsc sammel quem eys desperation, tem maung-ye quem in vasya wakyas tos zaman, Denethor viskwit tik ia effects ios aunsam combat quod oppos iom Swamen ios Albh Tor ei Swamen os Barad-dûr, ed it gwohm is do mistruses ceters qui katuer contra Sauron, ploisko ti qui dieugh pro eys wi interesses.
Eno tid ios Weirringios gwohm prosch, ed ies sons os Denethor niek balirhoumer. Boromir, is penkater, is habibe siens pater, samkwohk iom per lige ed per sieno mynder temperament, yed pau alsu. Is eet petis un wir ios genos ios prever Roy Eârnur, nel-ye wehdend, sontern kamend khaliban webentadribes, albatta robust ed bogaturic, yed pau kaurndo de swohdic weidas, sonst pro ia narns om xiawngjas bois. Faramir, is yuner, samkwohk iom lige-ye, yed hieb un alnos different menos. Is oiskwit id kerd im menscen med tant peneration quem sien pater, bet quo is lis ter iom incitit meis ad tongjon quem ad honn. Is eet os affable dumos, baygh versen in swohdic weida ed connaisseur de music, ed itak is eet ayt commun-ye ye tod zaman ka minter courageus quem sien ater. Yed to ne eet id fall, tik is ne pieursk danger ob dimaar. Is eepreimt noble-ye Gandalf kun so eegwehmt do wastu, ed eebruncskwt id mensdeh ios Greis, ed in to kam ia maung alya jects, desplaisit is sien pater.
Lakin ies brater kiem dorgvost-ye mutu, ed hieb semper esen it, pon ir miegve, ar quankwe Boromir hieb hohlpen ed protegen Faramir. Ed tuntos, neid jalousia ni rivalitat hieb cienryoun inter iens, kweter kay gaines id favor irs pater au laudens ab quantens. Faramir khiekit concepe od buit in Gondor semanghen in Gondor quel uperwehndiet Boromir, Denethors hered, hetman ios Albh Tor ed Boromir mohn sam-ye. Yed face ordeil, jects eetyehcient als. Bet de ia aventures tom tri unte id Weirring biht ample-ye lohgen alyer. Ed pos id Weir id waldh iom Royschalks gwohm do end, isghi hered om Isildur ed Anario rik, ed id royaltat buit restabliet, ed ep Echtelions Tor buit vis likes iter id bander ios Albh Dru.
