Only days after the death of the King’s son had forced the Rohirrim to contemplate the possibility of their kingdom’s destruction, the last host of the Eorlingas arrives on the Fields of the Pelennor at dawn. Having been a declining decrepit dotard, fretting in the darkness of Meduseld and leaning on the crooked words of a corrupt counsellor, Théoden now leads his people in joyfully risking everything in order to fulfil their national oath.
