THE REUNITED KINGDOM

The Reunited Kingdom (also known as the Great kingdom) was the realm founded byHigh-King Elessar in the fourth Age.The Reunited Kingdom comprised the ancient terretories of Gondor and Arnor, with their former provinces Angmar, Enedhwaith, Harondor, Near-Harad, Umbar and Dorwinion as well as Mordor and Nûrn and tributary realms in Southern Rhovanion, Haradwaith, Far-Harad, and Rhûn as far as the Far fields of the East and Menelothriand. Heraldry inspirted in Lindëfirion’s designs. Non-Canon alert

Rohirric ghost stories

  • Rohirrim probably have their own version of the common story where a young bride’s betrothed comes to her at night and they go for a ride together on a pale, silent horse. later she learns that he has died recently, perhaps the very night she rode with him, and it was his ghost she was riding with.
  • many believe there are fairy lights at fens that supposedly show the place of an ancient treasure on certain nights. however, if you go to follow these fairy lights, they are more likely to lure you to your death than actually reveal some treasure.
  • some have also seen phantom horses near some of the fens. they appear in the shape of one of the mearas, but you can always tell them for what they are by the ghostly light in their eyes. if you try to ride such horse, it will invariably take you into the fen. (compare to  Scottish Kelpie.)
  • in autumn, there is one night (like All Hallows’ Eve) when the dead are believed to be on the move. particularly there’s a belief about an éored of phantom riders racing through the fields of the Mark during this night. 
  • In Edoras, there’s a story about a washerwoman who sometimes appears on the banks of Snowbourn, washing bloody clothes in silence. her appearance is believed to be an omen of woe and death.
  • it is said a figure like Banshee wanders the lands of the Wold.  
  • Rohirrim avoid places where a large battle has taken place and blood has been spilled. they say the earth remembers the blood and grows hungry for it. it is not advised to settle on such land, unless one is prepared for misfortune. there are some rites than can be used to cleanse the land.
  • there are naturally many spooky stories about  Dwimorberg. people have been known to go missing if they go too close to it. some have returned (though none of those who approach the Paths of the Dead), but they are driven mad by nightmares and phantoms they see even with their waking eyes. similar stories are told of the wood of Lórien. 
  • some believe Helm Hammerhand’s ghost still wanders near the Hornburg on cold winter nights. there are those who claim that on those nights, a voice may appear behind your door, asking to be allowed inside from the cold. but even if you do heed to it and open your door, there is no one there in the darkness.

Minas Tirith

So I was looking at pictures of Minas Tirith, because I often do, and you should too. 

GIF by mirkokosmos

And I noticed something that had always bothered me. Maybe you noticed it to. That big giant jutting out spear of rock? Yeah, you know the one, the one Denethor runs off of. Well, there was a picture where the light hits it just the right way. And it all made sense.

We know that Minas Tirith is carved out of a mountain. The entire city was carved away and so fixed in stone that you can’t break down a house without further digging into a mountain. The place is a fortress, and solid stone. And I always thought it weird that there was a rock sticking out, and they didn’t bother to carve it down into more homes. I get it, they wanted a courtyard, but they couldn’t have wanted more housing?

And then it dawned on me. No, they didn’t carve that point out, because how else would they tell time? 

Minas Tirith is a giant sundial.

And depending on what parts of the city are visible or not visible tells what time of day it is.

                     SHE NODDED SLOWLY, A SMALL SMILE SPREADING across her lips as the Star fell into step with the Princess. “I’m afraid the story of our meeting is quite boring                       I was placing an old map I had of Middle Earth into the library of Minas Tirith and he noticed me and was rather curious about it. I was quite unaware I was speaking with Prince Eldarion at the time.”

          “He does spent most of his free time in the library, though to be fair, most of us do. The desire for knowledge runs through our veins.” Her voice faded then as distant memories swept her away -- though only for a moment -- for to get lost in her thoughts at such a time as this would be RUDE. “Then he courted you?” A pause as she gaged the lady’s reaction, “...or was it more spontaneous? Forgive my questions, I only ask because I hold a genuine curiosity!”

Aunt Vez;

          ❝Trouble with Rohan? Interesting.❞ Old habits die hard that the mere mention of politics (and news that suggests the souring of relations between staunch Western allies) turns her ear in interest. Mild it is, however, as apathy and a vow to remain uninvolved keep the former emissary and her aptitudes at bay. Likewise, Ithiliel could not suspect the brewing tension behind the raising of one dark brow. Father and mother knew of the dark dealings of her past, but daughters and the son, the current ruler of the Reunited Kingdom, are not privy to such connections. Aunt Vezely is simply the wife of her mother’s brother without any infamous titles of her own.
image
          ❝I cannot disagree,❞ with the assertion of trade being a powerful motivator, even if neither nation seems to lack resources that could serve as a threat to be revoked. Rhûn was and remains no such stranger to needs and it is marked by an economy more complex than that found West of Rhovanion where much is in abundance. ❝Still, Eldarion’s traditional approach is not without founding. So, Ambassador Ithiliel,❞ she muses rather than mocks with an intent to be playful (and to lead the conversation to lighter topics), ❝If you could go anywhere, even far far away from here, where would you go pedaling your amiability?❞

          Though friendship and allies Rohan and Gondor had for a long time been, few knew the nuances and tensions that lie in the shadows of their relationship. As one of royal blood, Ithiliel -- along side her siblings -- had been taught such subtleties that the populace little knew nor suspected. However, her sister seemed happy with the proposal, and so Ithiliel would be happy for her; and CELEBRATE alongside the rest of the Kingdom.

          “Interesting, or arrogance and pride?” The comment is murmured, with no intention of being heard by her aunt, though it is remembered too late the extraordinary hearing of her company. “Regardless, the decisions are not mine to make, and so I carry them not.” The question, though surprising, is one she does not have to think before answering, though the use of her title does bring a smile to lift the corner of her lip in amusement. “My travels have carried me all over Endor. Eryn Lasgalen, Dale, Moria, and Ithilien. For the most part there is peace among us all, but I find myself wandering to the North in dreams often, for the sake of curiosity. Who are the people that live beyond Arnor, in Forodwaith -- IF people still remain in such lands. I know little, and the libraries harbor little more.” Only the histories of those lands existed in her books, but humanity was a hardy race, and she did not believe that all Men had simply disappeared from such lands. “But to see the endless fields of ice and snow -- that would be a grand adventure indeed!”

Elliel;

The Maiden’s lips turned upward again, for she was all to happy to speak well of Lord Elrond, and how could she not?
“Kind and Intelligent,” she declared, “You and your Mother resemble him most, I think. He was also very patient, anyone became comfortable in his presence easily.” 
image
Her voice held such refined surity that she thought none ought to deny her words, and they couldn’t. But an expression came upon her face again that contradict4ed this, as she would reveal something hardly anyone could believe,
“But he could also be also very, very shy!” Elliel brought a hand to her mouth, trapping the laugh behind her lps. It sounded funny even saying it. “He didn’t tell your grandmother he loved her for centuries because his bashfulness. I don’t think everybody remembers just how gentle he was that way.”
image

          Pride flooded her heart then, for Ithiliel knew she was very much in the resemblance of her mother, but to find out she also followed in Lord Elrond’s print was a thought that brought elation! Everyone had only ever spoken highly of him, and the image made her smile. The change upon the Elleth’s face, however, made Ithiliel pause.

          “Shy?!” She questioned in surprise. That was a trait none in her family had -- for it was most improper to have a member of the royal family act shy around ANYONE. Dignity and poise were drilled into her from an early age. “That seems a silly thing to hold in. I think if you love someone, you ought to tell them!” Her voice echoed the surety the other previously expressed, her opinion upon that matter rooted firmly in her heart -- likely from the story of her parents, and how her father had been so bold in expressing his love for the Lady Arwen. “To do differently would seem almost like torture!” The last sentence spoken in a gasp as she turned to the Lady beside her with an incredulous look.

                     THERE is a slight widen of her eyes as she is informed of this. “He speaks of me?” She does not think herself important enough to be worthy of such a thing, but says no more on it, lest cheeks warm with blush. “I have nothing of importance to do, so I would love to join you for tea. It would be my HONOUR.”
image

          The woman seems flighty in her thoughts, almost aloof in her innocence. Perhaps THIS is what draws Eldarion to her, though her affect upon him is a refreshing change from the stoic man he has become. “Then we shall retire to the gardens at once!” The smile upon her face reflects only warmth as her stride moves towards the city’s spire. “How did you meet my brother?”

O, how like her parents she’d grown, both fair and brave and twice of spirit – and so, King Elessar, blessed with crown and wisdom, felt still his heart bow to her in great love. Such was the sway of their ever kind Ithiliel. It surely left father not so untouched. “And I shall stand by you beyond even that passing of the moon,” he returned before grasping her hands, “but blessed are we where I need not ask so grave a thing.” How warm were his eyes glancing up at this child… To risk all for him, however, she would never have to do. “The thought alone is enough.” No, more than enough.

@isilmerian ❤ for a starter (not-accepting)
         the king strides into the large halls of minas tirith, with the grime of travel still on his clothes and body. he’s known for being a very humble king, as most of his life he has spent in exile among the rangers. that lifestyle is not easily left behind and forgotten. his expression morphs into surprise seeing his daughter among the halls.
     ❛ ithiliel what are you doing here, i thought you were supposed to be in mirkwood with legolas? ❜

          Eryn Lasgalen had been a peaceful trip, and a brief one, for her presence during the Festival of Starlight had been merely a formality; and she found herself returning after a few days time. “King Thranduil is very busy of late, and I did not feel my presence was needed any longer, so I returned HOME.” Without the prince, for he had decided to stay a time before returning to Ithilien. “I did not realize YOU had planned a trip. Did I handle a negotiation so poorly that the King had to resolve it?”
