Talk:Aragorn II

From Tolkien Gateway

Any siblings?

According to Arathorn II, Aragorn was "his only son" (unsourced), but did he have any sisters and would they be regarded as heirs of Isildur? If not, wouldn't an heir of Isildur have to ensure he had kids (instead of waiting for permission to marry Arwen) before doing what he did as Thorongil and in the war? -- Jeandré, 2006-08-13t07:17z

Aragorn was Arathorn's only child and thus the only possible heir of Isildur. I don't think Aragorn was someone who would be willing to have a child with anyone but Arwen simply to continue the line. Aragorn knew if he didn't stay focused on the War of the Ring having a child would be irrelevant as Sauron and Evil would reign supreme over Men. --Hyarion 15:17, 13 August 2006 (EDT)

Six daughters?

Linathiel, where exactly did you get the number "six" from? -- Ederchil 03:25, 7 February 2008 (EST)

Quote

"Tall as the sea-kings of old, he stood above all that were near; ancient of days he seemed and yet in the flower of manhood; and wisdom sat upon his brow, and strength and healing were in his hands, and a light was about him."
The Return of the King, The Steward and the King

What do you think about this quote? I think it describes better who Aragorn was and what an impression he made on others than the current one, doesn't it? -- Eldarion Telcontar 15:21, 16 May 2008 (EDT)

I agree. Don't like this quote -- Ederchil 15:14, 16 May 2008 (EDT)
