Summary: Eldacar the King…and Eldacar the prince.

Eldacar, the half-blood king of Gondor, wars with his kin.
He, Vidumavia’s son, holds the Citadel of the Stars.
Vinitharya, Valacar’s heir, of North and South together.
Castamir, Captain of Ships, slew his son.
Ornendil! His blood cries for vengeance.
Eldacar sits alone under stars.
Holding the Master Stone,
He wishes for
It to
End.

A
New age
Sees Osgiliath rebuilt.
Amidst the graves of
His noble ancestors, the prince
Walks at whiles. Ornendil, he sees
For the ghosts of the Fall speak
To this small great-grandson of Elessar. He returns
Their greetings, too young yet to be afraid.
Of barrow-wights he knows nothing. These remnants are harmless
And salute their prince, Eldacar of Gondor, of Telcontar’s House.
