AMROTH
Sindarin
Elf, King of
Lórien, beloved of
Nimrodel, Amroth ruled
Lórien since his
father Amdir was slain in the Battle of Dagorlad. When
Nimrodel fled south, Amroth
followed, found her and vowed that for her sake he will leave his people and
together with her seek passage over the Sea. When
Nimrodel was lost in the
White Mountains, Amroth waited for her on a ship until a great storm carried
the ship away from land. In despair Amroth leapt into the sea to swim to the
shore and was never seen again.
The name 'Amroth' means 'upclimber, high climber' and is said to be his nickname derived from his dwelling in a high flet on the top of the great hill of Cerin Amroth which was named after him.
