The Last KingA King of the North…
A King of Arthedain…
A King, domed to die.
"Last shall he be to sit in Arthedain" - Wispered/Echo.
When the claws of Angmar came forth
Smote they the Dunedain
With guard fled he
To Mountains West.
To Mountains High.
To Mountains Blue.
From the depth he came
Starvation drove him
Hunger lured him
To Lands of cold
To Lands of Ice
To Forochel.
From the sea, great birds came
Hope flickerd
Freedom at last
Nay!
Nay
Do not mount the birds!
But listen did he not
To the sea he went
And the sea it was…
That clamied, Arvedui, last King, of Arnor.
Yes, I know its poor, but I just wanted to have a go.

I don't think it's poor. 
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

Well I liked it! If we Dunedain have an oral history, it is our responsibility to write down and preserve that history for our people. Just another example of how historical events are presented in such a way as for the people to remember. Good job, keep them coming!
