Relations between Theoden and his nephew Eomer and niece Eowyn were notable. Each, in loving loyalty to their uncle and king, disobeyed him in ways which proved crucial to victory in the war. Eomer let Aragorn live, when blind obedience to the king's order would have forced Eomer to kill him along with the elf and dwarf who were his companions. Eowyn left Rohan in man's garb, riding to war with [[Merry]], and together they defeated the head [[Ring Wraith]].
