The last descendant of ancient kings, Aragorn is fated to one day claim the long empty throne of Gondor in Minas Tirith, should he prove himself worthy. It is a doom he never wanted. For Aragorn's true heart's longing is not for glory in war, nor riches, nor power, but only the love of Arwen, daughter of Elrond, and the right to live out his days with her, though he was born a mortal Man, and she Elven kind. In the face of seemingly insurmountable evil, this love is his strength and the well of his power.
