This chapter concludes the era of Aldarion, one of the most important kings in the history of Númenor. As we learned in the last episode, his father, Tar-Meneldur, chose to turn the rule of Númenor over to Aldarion earlier than was normal, due to a letter from the Elven High-King Gil-galad. asking for Númenor’s aid amidst the increasingly dire situation in Middle-earth. In this chapter, we’ll explore Aldarion’s reign, as well as what becomes of his wife Erendis and daughter Ancalimë.
As with our last few episodes, this is a longer chapter than most of the Fall of Númenor chapters, so we’ll only be hitting the high points.
However, if you’d like a more in-depth discussion of the tale of Aldarion and Erendis, to include Greta’s perspective, please check out the notes, or just go back and find episodes 183, 185, 186, and 187.
