Bregur felt great guilt for the death of Helediril, for he wished only to stop his mother from reporting his misdeeds to the King, not slay her. Lady Helediril was laid to rest among the burial mounds of Haudh Eglan, within the woods of Annúndir which she loved so much in life. He visited her grave many times, though he was always keen to avoid Thorneth when he did so, either out of dislike for his half-sister or fear that she may discover his involvement in their mother’s fall.

In the latter years of the reign of Araphant, the Witch-king of Angmar sent forth groups of his orcs and evil men to conduct raids upon the peoples of Arthedain. They avoided the larger fortresses and the capital of Fornost and struck the outlying towns and farmsteads with small warbands. The scouts of Arthedain would often spot these attackers, but it was difficult for the kingdom’s armies to respond in time due to the swiftness that the enemy could achieve, save for when they pushed their luck too far and were rode down by the cavalry of Ost Galumar.

So it was that, with the fair Princess Éowyn by my side, I departed from the dread Golden Wood with life and sanity intact, a great feat indeed by the accounting of any man.  A little bit later, we came back to the Ranger camp by Loopy Creek, where still those lowly ruffians feasted and partied, revelling about the place and enjoying their loot.

‘Come’, said Mr Elessar, as he freed me from my bonds, ‘Sit, and I will tell you the sorry tale of how Boromir the Mighty was led by treachery and sorcery to his unhappy death.’
