Her er litt info om Elendil - as promised:
Elendil was the only son of Amandil of Andúinë, last lord of the Faithful of Westernesse. Warned of the impending destruction of Númenor, he and his two sons - Isildur and Anárion - led the remaining Faithful eastward in three ships across the sea to Endor. They saved the seven Palant�*ri, the great Seeing stones, as well as the magnificent Silver Rod of Andúinë. Through Isildurs courage, they also preserved the line of the White Tree, for Elendil's elder son stole a fruit of Nimloth before they set sail for Middle-Earth.
Elendil founded Arnor (det er det landet dere er i nå! -DM) and built the beautiful capital of Annúminas by lake Evendim, while Anárion and Isildur founded Gondor.Although his sons jointly ruled the South Kingdom, Elendil was in fact High-King of both realms from their origin until his death in 3441 S.A.
During the last battle upon the slopes of Orodruin, the Dark Lord Sauron engaged both Gil-galad (the High Elven-king) and Elendil in single combat. The Evil One slew both Lords and destroyed their mighty weapons; but at the same time, Isildur - always brave , if impetuous - rushed forward and cut the One Ring from Sauron's hand. The surviving leaders - Isildur, C�*rdan and Elrond - retreated to try rebuild their devastated lands.
Elendil was no doubt an intimidating presence. He stood well over seven feet high, and bore the legendary sword Narsil and the Silver Rod of Andúinë. Narsil, aka the Flame of the West, could flame on command - either hot flames that slayed orcs, or cold flames that slayed undeads. The Silver Rod struck as a flail and could immobilize its opponents.
