Lore

The hills of Emyn Uial along the northern bounds of Yondershire are dotted with several keeps of Arnorian origin, now long-abandoned and crumbling into disrepair, their pride and lineage forgotten by the folk who dwell nearby.

And yet today, even as it was more than three thousand years ago, a crow can still fly from Taerhad to Annúminas in the north-east with surprising swiftness, though its peering eye will see only the nobility carved in rock and stone, for the King has gone away. — Deed
