moving from strider
{{spoiler}}
'''Strider''' is the alias of Aragorn, the "king" referred to in the third volume of ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]''. The return of the king to Middle Earth is a long-hoped-for event. The decay and other problems facing the land are attributed to people who "had never heard of the king" or had rebelled against his rule.
Strider is chief of the Rangers, and as the foster son of [[Elrond]] of Rivendell, sets out on many adventures of knights-errantry under various names. [[Gandalf]] left a letter for [[Frodo Baggins|Baggins]] to penetrate his guise, but the letter was delayed and the two nearly failed to meet. On old rhyme about ''All that is gold does not glitter'' establishes Strider as [[Aragorn]], son of Arathorn.
The land of [[Gondor]] was ruled by a long line of stewards in the king's name, and his return was nearly thwarted by the arrogance of the last steward [[Denethor]]. He tried to kill his son [[Faramir]] and then committed suicide, throwing himself on a burning pyre which he set himself.
The handover of power was accomplished peacefully, upon Faramir's recovery. After Strider's marriage to [[Arwen]], Faramir married [[Éowyn]] of the neighboring kingdom of [[Rohan]].
