When first he met five fallen kings, sword and torch his only tools. Mindless pursuit of the Master's ring. Flaming wraiths at Amon Sûl. Beneath the mountain as the drums shook the walls of Balin's tomb, he braved the long dark, void of sun, goblin's den at Khazad-dûm. War cries as the men draw their swords. Thirsty for the black blood of the orcs. Led by a ranger from the north. The exiled son of Númenor. Visions of the white tree frozen in time, ruined by the beast men who would taint it with fire. So too do the embers in our hearts burn alight. For King Elessar, we would lay down our lives. War cries as the men draw their swords. Thirsty for the black blood of the orcs. Led by a ranger from the north. The exiled one. Wrought with centuries of blame, the broken blade reforged anew. Shards that cut Isildur's Bane held aloft before Udûn. War cries as the men draw their swords. Thirsty for the black blood of the orcs. Led by a ranger from the north. The exiled son of Númenor. Andúril, flame of the west, strengthen our spirit in the enemy's camp. In the name of the King, if this be our end, we fight for the honor, victorious in death. Til the battle is won, raise a sword! For the exiled son, raise a sword!

Hail to the Riddermark, the land of my birth. Rolling fields, a sea of grass that shall forever churn. Riding with the wind, the horse lords, like a rising storm. The thunder of our hooves are felt upon the Entwash shores. Hail to the Riddermark, the land I defend. To fight the power in the east, need peace amongst the men. Holding fast our allies, Halifirien aflame. Muster the Rohirrim, Gondor calls for aid! We ride, ere the sun will rise! Thousands of riders, we brandish our spears. Charging at full speed, we fill them with fear. The orc hordes are rattled, for many will die. The horse lords in battle are brimming with pride. We ride! Hail to the Riddermark, the land of my death. I fell in battle, honor bound to Edoras' defense. Tonight I dine with my ancestors in their mighty halls, or on the morrow be reborn a horse to ride once more!

Descendants of Thrór, of great Erebor, masters of mining with riches untold, lay claim to the mountain, declaring a war upon the red dragon who made it his hoard. Held unto moonlight the parchment revealed an entrance in secret hitherto concealed. Gambling on stealth, instead they were met with long plumes of black smoke and red dragon's breath. Wings spread, the wyrm shrieks, enraged. Took to flight, trails of fire in his wake. Set his gaze on Esgaroth upon the lake. Lake-town was swallowed in flames. The roaring, which silenced the screams. Despite his surroundings ablaze, one single archer took aim. A bare spot was open between his scales and so he released an arrow and fell the beast! At long last home were Durin's folk, but those who lent support in war sought shares of gold. Unbeknownst to all, enemies had come. All five armies' horns start to blow! The all seeing eye lies in wait. Free peoples divided by hate are prone to becoming enslaved.
