Amantul was the son of an Umbar corsair. Amantul was the son of an Umbar corsair. His father helped Prince Imrahil rescue the Gondorians from Umbar captivity. The Prince of Dol Amroth allowed his family to settle in Gondor, on the coast of the Bay of Belfalas. Amantul kept a large shop in the large coastal city. He traded in a wide variety of goods, from spices and candies to rare fabrics and oriental incense. His family traded in a wide variety of goods, from spices and sweets to rare fabrics and oriental incense. He traveled throughout Middle-earth, from the sands of Harad to Dale and the shores of Lake Rhûn, in search of unusual and wondrous things.

2.Amantul was married and had two children. Amantul was married and had two children. But the successful merchant had a dirty secret. He loved trying on women's dresses and wearing makeup. In fact, Amantul believed that  Eru and valar had made a mistake in the distribution of souls and he should have been born  female, not male. No one knew about this.

3.One day, when Amantul was returning from a trip to Far Harad for rare goods, he met the knights of Dulgabeth. The servants of Sauron's Herald arrested Amantul and delivered him to Barad-Dûr. The goods were also confiscated for the benefit of Mordor.

4.Amantul was presented to Sauron. The Dark Lord looked into soul and mind of the unfortunate merchant and saw all his fears, thoughts, and secret desires. He laughed at the dirty secret and said, "Enough of this pretense. Become what you were born to be."

5.The merchant submitted. He joined the Order of the Eye and swore an oath to serve the masters of Mordor faithfully. His Gondorian name was forgotten. He was given a new name: Amantul. The herald permitted Amantul to wear clothes and wigs in Mordor. Dulgabeth cared little for his servants' attire. He demanded loyalty and diligence from his slaves. The Mouth of Sauron also promised to find a way to fulfill Amantul's deepest desire and transform him into a full-fledged woman with breasts and a womb.

6.Amantul was sent to the dungeons of Barad-dûr. He assisted the jailers and executioners in their work: preparing tools, escorting prisoners, and cleaning the prison cells. The work was hard, but he did not complain. He believed in Sauron and that one day he would receive the right body.

Lithlad is a lifeless desert in the east of Mordor, covered in ash and salt. However, even in this harsh land, there is a place for beauty. However, even in these harsh lands, there is a place for beauty. This tree grew thanks to the remnants of Elven magic that lingered in some areas of Lithlad.

"COME FORTH!" THEY CRIED. "LET THE LORD OF THE BLACK LAND COME FORTH! JUSTICE SHALL BE DONE UPON HIM. FOR WRONGFULLY HE HAS MADE WAR UPON GONDOR AND WRESTED ITS LANDS..."

"...Therefore the King of Gondor demands that he should atone for his evils, and depart then for ever. Come forth!” There was a long silence, and from wall and gate no cry or sound was heard in answer. As they waited Aragorn’s hands went to the elf-stone that hung from his neck, gifted to him by Arwen in Imladris, and his thoughts dwelt of she whom he loved. But then there came a long rolling of great drums like thunder in the mountains, and then a braying of horns that shook the very stones and stunned men’s ears. And thereupon the middle door of the Black Gate was thrown open with a great clang, and out of it there came an embassy from the Dark Tower.

At its head there rode a tall and evil shape, mounted upon a black horse, if horse it was; for it was huge and hideous, and in the sockets of its eyes and in its nostrils there burned a flame. The rider was robed all in black, and black was his lofty helm; yet this was no Ringwraith but a living man. The Lieutenant of the Tower of Barad-dûr he was, and his name is remembered in no tale; for he himself had forgotten it, and he said: “I am the Mouth of Sauron.” With him came only a small company of black-harnessed soldiery, and a single banner, black but bearing on it in red the Evil Eye. Now halting a few paces before the Captains of the West he looked them up and down and laughed.

“Is there anyone in this rout with authority to treat with me?” he asked. “Or indeed with wit to understand me? Not thou at least!” he mocked, turning to Aragorn with scorn. “It needs more to make a king than a piece of elvish glass, or a rabble such as this. Why, any brigand of the hills can show as good a following!”
