Extinguishing Andúril

A Poem

By Atomic HistorianPublished 5 months ago 1 min read

Gondor called for aid

But all the cards had been played

No one rode out

Because Gondor had alienated all of Middle Earth

They violated every oath and tradition

And fallen into superstition

When they called

The dwarves, elves, hobbits, and other tribes of men all yelled

Let it fall!!

Gondor paid its final score

Because everything is forever

Until it is no more
