That's for Frodo! That's for the Shire! And that's for my old Gaffer!!!.Let him go, you filth! Let him go! You will not touch him again! Come here and finish it!.Naughty little fly! Why does it cry? Caught in a web! Soon you'll be.And we forgot the taste of bread, the sound of trees, the softness of the wind. They cursed us, and drove us away! And we wept, precious. You are soldiers of Gondor! No matter what comes through those gates, you will stand your ground!.Hold them back! Do not give into fear! Stand to your posts! FIGHT!.We come to it at last the great battle of our time.Of all the inquisitive hobbits, Peregrin Took, you are the worst!.In fact, it's better if you don't speak at all, Peregrin Took. To give him news of his beloved son's death would be most unwise. The line of Kings failed, the White Tree withered, and the rule of Gondor was given over to lesser men. And so the people of Gondor fell into ruin.

Childless lords sat in aged halls musing on heraldry or in high, cold towers asking questions of the stars. Kings made tombs more splendid than the houses of the living and counted the names of their descent dearer than the names of their sons. The old wisdom that was borne out of the West was forsaken. That a king will come and this city will be as it once was before it fell into decay. Faith and fading hope that one day it will flower. Gandalf the White They guard it because they have hope. Let us together rebuild this world that we may share in the days of peace. This day does not belong to one man but to all.An hour of wolves and shattered shields when the age of Men comes crashing down! But it is not this day! This day we fight! By all that you hold dear on this good Earth, I bid you stand! Men of the West! Sons of Gondor! Of Rohan! My brothers! I see in your eyes the same fear that would take the heart of me! A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship.Some hurts that go too deep, that have taken hold. there is no going back? There are some things that time cannot mend.

How do you pick up the threads of an old life? How do you go on, when in your heart you begin to understand.

Thirteen months to the day since Gandalf sent us on our long journey, we found ourselves looking upon a familiar sight: We were home.

And the Fellowship of the Ring, though eternally bound by friendship and love, was ended.

And thus it was a Fourth Age of Middle-earth began.

Frodo Baggins I bid you stand! Men of the West!
