The Black Gate Opens
Once the battle of the Pelennor was over,
the only way Men could help Frodo was to draw out Sauron's
forces. For the only way to defeat Sauron was to destroy the
Ring, and Frodo had the Ring.
Those left of the people of Rohan and Gondor
made their way to the Black Gate of the Enemy. After a while,
it opens, and the Enemy comes pouring forth, encircling the
Men. The Men, now acting as one, under the one banner of the
King, under Aragorn's command, charge into the heart of the
enemy. The enemy cannot hold back their charge, but soon the
Nazgul arrive to assist and strike fear into the hearts of the
men.
Two things then happen. One is the eagles
come to attack the Nazgul's mounts, and second, Sauron is
alerted to the presence of the Ring so close to the fires of
Mount Doom. Sauron calls of the Nazgul to Mount Doom.
This song highlights the final struggle of
the Men, as well as Frodo and Sam's final push up the mountain
with grand splendor.
