Gimli drops his axe. The war is over... but... Legolas. I fall to my knees. The Witch King of Agmar took him. Why? It must be Sauron. I grip my sword. Why...? I drop my sword. I can't hold onto the blade forever. I pick up his bow. I run it over my fingers.

"He saved my life." Theoden King walks forward to us.

"He saved many." I say.

"Oh no..." Gimli mutters.

I look over and I see Gimli's face. Tears were dripping from his face. I put my hand on his shoulder. The ghost army comes before us. I stand up. I pick up the sword. I turn to them. The King walks forward.

"Release us from our imprisonment. You gave us your word." He says.

"Bad idea." Gimli says. 

"You gave us your word." He growls.

"I release you from your curse. Go free." I say.

They nod. They start fading like fog. I let out a breath. Gondor. I never thought I would set eyes on my destiny. But... I am the true King of Gondor. I am Aragorn son of Arathorn. I am the rightful king, though it's a destiny I never wanted. However, there's no turning back now.  I see Gandalf approaching.

"I see you have finally wielded the sword." Gandalf says.

"Gandalf, they took Legolas." I say.

"Are you sure?" Gandalf says.

"Absolutely." Gimli walks to us.

"Then whatever Sauron's planning...it'll be worse for Legolas." Gandalf mutters.
