385 – I Saw Her Standing There (in Ròmenna)

Erendis arrives at a very important party, and is caught by Aldarion’s beauty and splendor of bearing; that never happens to Alan or Sara. Join The Man of the West and The Shieldmaiden of Rohan as we continue our 10-part dive into the story of Aldarion and Erendis from Unfinished Tales. Queen Almarian drops a hint that Aldarion just can’t catch, Meneldur has wisdom for his son — even if he ignores it, and Aldarion can’t stop looking at Erendis as he sails away… before too long, he’ll fall in love with her. We math out the age gap relationship, discover Erendis’ connection to Tuor and Huor, and decide that this day, we sail. Also, Sara is in open rebellion.
