Mightier than Este is NIENNA, sister of the Feanturi; she dwells alone. She is acquainted with grief, and mourns for every wound that Arda has suffered in the marring of Melkor. So great was her sorrow, as the Music unfolded, that her song turned to lamentation long before its end, and the sound of mourning was woven into the themes of the World before it began. But she does not weep for herself; and those who hearken to her learn pity, and endurance in hope. All those who wait in Mandos cry to her, for she brings strength to the spirit and turns sorrow to wisdom.

The KING'S MEN were those among the Númenóreans who were hostile to the Eldar and will of the Valar throughout the history of Númenor during the later half of the Second Age.

Hey friends, Finn here with some fun context for this scene. Did you guys know that you should never clean a blade with sea water? Salt rusts and corrodes steel. Typically before embarking on any journey where your blade might see sea water, the blade would be coated with some sort of grease to keep the steel safe.

You would never clean a blade with sea water. It will rust.

This is excellent attention to detail.

Kemen is not a warrior. He's not a sailor. He's not a soldier. He's a petulant child fighting for a scrap of his father's attention. He is ignorant of his own peoples' traditions because his father never respected them enough to teach him.
