'''Ruling Steward''' was the title used for the rulers of [[Gondor]] after the loss of the last King, [[Eärnur]]. The first of the Ruling Stewards was [[Mardil Voronwë]]. Before him the [[Stewards of Gondor]] were only the advisors to the [[King of Gondor]]. The title was hereditary, and was carried on through twenty-six generations to [[Denethor II]], Ruling Steward at the time of the [[War of the Ring]]. His son [[Faramir son of Denethor II|Faramir]] gave up the rule of Gondor to [[Aragorn II]], the rightful [[Heir of Isildur]]. Faramir then took up the traditional role of a Steward of Gondor as the advisor to the King.
