A Youthful Ambition

Caladorn Esteldir was born in the year 2781 as the son of a fisherman and a herbalist in the small fishing town of Melgobas. Melgobas was a busy and peaceful town, located on the shore of the sea, protected by the large city of Dol Amroth. This city, ruled by the Princes, was known for its swan-knights, and Caladorn was intrigued by their skill with the sword, their ability to lead and the fact that the Swan-knights were an elite regiment.

The Gondorian Army was made up of several layers. The first rank were the general troops, called the Dagarath. These ranks would be filled with the new soldiers who didn’t have a father high in the military. The Dagarath was divided into four separate contingents: the Dag-hoth, the Cú-hoth, the Roch-hoth and the Cír-hoth. The Dag-hoth was a contingent of footsoldiers who were called the Dagorim and an individual a Dagron. The Cú-hoth were the archers called the Cynor, or Cunor if talked about one person. The third contingent was the Roch-hoth made up of the Rochirrim, with an individual being called a Rochir. The last contingent is the navy soldiers, called the Cír-hoth. A Cirior is a soldier who guards the seas of Gondor, with multiple being called the Círiath.

Beside these standard ranks there are also the specialised troops, the Cair-hoth, to which the Knights of the Swan are counted. Other regiments under this category are the Knights of the Sun from Minas Tirith, the Knights of the Moon, who are now called the Rangers of Ithilien, the Knights of the Stars from Osgiliath, the Knights of the Dolphin from Pelargir and the Knights of the Falcon from Calenhir.

Above the Dagarath are the Condirath which are the higher ranked land soldiers. The first rank is a Caenon. This Corporal has the command of ten to twenty soldiers. Above the Caenon is the Condir, having the command over fifty men. This rank is the last rank one could become if they were not part of the Cair-hoth. For the Cair-hoth the rank of Arandir was still possible, commanding over a hundred men. And above this rank was the rank Hîr I Dagarath, the general of Gondors forces. For the navy the first rank is the captain of the ship, called a Hîr I Chír, which is also the last rank possible for regular soldiers. For Hîr I Aear the person had to be part of the Cair-hoth before.

His father had served in the military as a Hîr I Chír, but had to leave the army after he lost his leg battling with the Corsairs of Umbar. Now captain of a fishingboat he often led Caladorn sail with him. Sometimes they would reach all the way to Pelargir to the east or Calenhir to the west. When his father was away with his crew alone he would help his mother with collecting herbs in the lands of Anfalas. The lands of Anfalas were not particularly dangerous, but Caladorn carried a bow and two swords just to be sure.

Sometimes he had to travel as far as the Blackroot Vale, and a bear or brigand attack could always happen on such a long journey. Because of his ambition to become a swan-knight, called an Alphir, he often would use this journey as practice, hunting deer and climbing trees or hills to reach herbs he needed to prepare for the day that the Prince of Dol Amroth would assign to one of the five contingents.

The Knights of the Swan

Before the 1st of January, 2802, Caladorn had to journey to Dol Amroth to be assigned for the army. He was quite nervous as he was determined to become an Alphir, and the upcoming inspection would determine which regiment he would be assigned to. Around 4 o’clock in the afternoon he and 20 other young men would be brought to the Prince of Dol Amroth who would decide together with a couple of Arandir, who would decide where the boy would begin his training.

Caladorn was chosen to become an Alphir not just because of his agile and strong build, but also because of his ability to think quickly and his determination to be better. He started his studies in Dol Amroth and Calenhir to become one of the Alphir. In 2806 he was finished with his training and was send to Ost Arndír in Pinnath Gelin to help protect the realm. The lands of Pinnath Gelin were far more quiet than the town of Melgobas or the city of Dol Amroth. Together with 90 other Alphir he was in service to the Arandir of Pinnath Gelin, Beleg Faelivrin.

Caladorn first post was the Keep of Ost Arndír. In the year 2809 Pinnath Gelin had problems with Dunlendings coming over the White Mountains. Caladorn was send to the Boarpass to secure the pass while the other troops would go over the eastern pass which was used by the Dunlendings. The Dunlendings however were aware, and while the main army was passing through the eastern pass, they tried to push into Ost Arndír through the Boarpass. Caladorn, 9 other Alphir and some other Dagorim came face to face with the brigand force.

When they became aware of the force, the Dagorim would move back while the Alphir would hide and try to get behind the Dunlending force. The Dunlendings were surprised to find the Dagorim and started the attack. When the Dagorim acted as the anvil and than the hammer of the Alphir attacked from the back. Caladorn battled the brigand leader and took him as hostage to Ost Arndír to be interrogated by the governor and the Arandir.

After having saved Pinnath Gelin from a disaster, Calandorn was send to Iáphel to guard the small town. It was here that he met Eleniel Faelivrin, the daughter of his Arandir. Tasked to protect the town and the home of the Arandir he saw her often and over the months they established a relationship. Caladorn even got invited to have dinner with the Governor and the Arandir.

In 2810 Caladorn got a promotion to Caenon after his previous Caenon retired. Caladorn was tasked with the protection of Iáphel and had the command over 15 men. The years went on and Caladorn and Eleniel started to make plans to start a family. They married on the 1st of June, 2817 when Caladorn was 35 and Eleniel 33 in the gardens of Iáphel. Only a year later the Arandir passed away due to an illness which caused another Anandir to take his place. Caladorn, Eleniel and the mother of Eleniel would come to posses the old house while the new Arandir would start living in Ost Arndír itself.

Starting a Legacy

In the spring of 2822 the mother of Caladorn joined her son in Iáphel after his father had passed away due to infections in his missing leg. The house was large enough to house four people without any complications and they started building a family. Their first son was born on the 15th of June, 2838, and was called Thaendir and their second son Doronir was born on the 18th of November 2841. Thaendir and Doronir quickly began to show capabilities. Thaendir was the smarter one of the two, being very quick and reactive in situations that could turn out problematic while Doronir had more durability and strength.

When the boys were 12 and 9 years old, Caladorn was send on a mission to Calenhir as Corsairships were spotted nearby. On the 19th of June Caladorn was killed after capturing the third ship. From then on Eleniel had to care for the house by herself. She had been a scholar in the library of Ost Arndír and could provide food for the household although it was tough. Thaendir entered the army at the age of 18 on the 1st of July, 2856 and Doronir entered three years later on the 1st of December, 2859. Both were assigned to the Alphir ranks and for four years they trained to become the best they could be in the name of their father.

In the year 2860 Thaendir graduated and was send to Ost Lontir
