Deep within the folded lands along the shores of Nenuial, known to most as
At the behest of Amlaith, Gwindeth placed under her protection the last of the Silithair, gems of surpassing beauty and power crafted by the Elves. Aragorn, son of Arathorn, came to Gwindethrond to seek the Silithar, but Gwindeth turned him aside. Aragorn still hopes that the Silithar can be recovered, for its power will be needed to help drive back the Shadow in the East.
Gwindethrond is one of many locations created by Turbine in the Evendim region to flesh out the otherwise scarcely developed area. A deep tie has been made between the lore of Turbine?s?Shadows of Angmar?and that of J.R.R. Tolkien?s The Lord of the Rings in order to bring lore consistency to the game.
