Le royaume que Sauron a effacé avant d'attaquer Gondor — La guerre d'Angmar | Tolkien

You know the War of the Ring. But before Sauron could attack Gondor, he had to wipe out another kingdom. A kingdom most Tolkien fans barely know. Arnor. To destroy it, Sauron sent his most dangerous servant—the Witch-king of Angmar—with a single order. Destroy the Dúnedain in the North, before they can save the South. What followed was a war that lasted centuries, plague-born Barrow-wights, and the death of a king in the icy waves of the North. And a prophecy spoken by Glorfindel on the plains of Arnor—which centuries later, Éowyn of Rohan would fulfill.
