<blockquote>''Red fires burn in the east. Black clouds wrack the sky. The Enemy is moving, mustering at the very doorstep of [[Gondor]]. But still hope remains: the ships that raided [[Pelargir]] now lie in the hands of [[Aragorn]], who seeks to sail north and reclaim the lands of [[men]]. With the [[Witch-king]]'s army preparing to besiege [[Minas Tirith]], you must keep the forces of darkness from learning of Aragorn's plan and seek allies and information to help defend [[Middle-earth]] from the foul legions of [[Sauron]].''</blockquote>

== [[File:Icon lore.png|32px]] Lore ==
<blockquote>'''''Gondor''' is the second of the two great nations of [[Men]] founded in Middle-earth by [[Elendil]] after the Downfall of [[Númenor]], the other being [[Arnor]] in the north. It was located to the west of [[Mordor]], on the Bay of [[Havens of Belfalas|Belfalas]].

''Gondor was at first ruled jointly by [[Elendil]]'s sons [[Isildur]] and [[Anárion]]. Both Elendil and Anárion were lost in the Siege of [[Barad-dûr]], and his brother Isildur soon afterwards in the Disaster of the Gladden Fields, and so the Kingship of Gondor fell on Anárion's son Meneldil. Thus, the Kings of Gondor were descendants of Anárion through many generations until the time of [[Eärnur]].

''When Eärnur was lost in [[Minas Morgul]] in III 2050, the rule of Gondor was taken up by the King's Steward, Mardil Voronwë; the death of Eärnur was not certain, and so Mardil and the Stewards who followed him pledged to rule 'until the King comes back'. Unlikely though this seemed, it happened almost a thousand years later in III 3019 when [[Aragorn]] Elessar, descendant by right line of Isildur, elder brother of Anárion, reclaimed the throne of Gondor.

''Its name means "Land of Stone", from [[Sindarin]] ''gond'' (stone) + ''(n)dor'' (land), most likely given to it because of the [[White Mountains|Ered Nimrais]] and other mountain chains in the land.

'''''Eastern Gondor''' lies on the forefront of war. Enemies march on the ruined city of [[Osgiliath]], as the people of Gondor seek refuge in the strongholds along the White Mountains. Defend refugees from [[Minas Tirith]] who have taken shelter from the encroaching army. Can you protect them from the forces of [[Mordor]] while still keeping [[Aragorn]]'s approach a secret from Sauron and his spies?

''Clear the land closest to the [[Rammas Echor|Rammas]], the massive wall that surrounds Minas Tirith. Tensions run high with the impending siege and those who remain call for aid from any who would give it.

''Join the resistance in [[South Ithilien]]! [[Rangers]] hold their ground with little to show for it, save a rising death toll and dwindling resources. Aid them in slowing and thinning the ranks of the enemy who cross the borders ahead of Sauron's army.

''Fight to keep the enemy at bay! The East bank of Osigiliath has been sacked and the city is overrun. Hold the line against the forces of the Witch-king in hope that the aid from [[Pelargir]] does not come too late.</blockquote>
