During the last stand, Isildur put on the [[One Ring]] and tried to swim the [[Anduin]]. But the Ring slipped off his finger as he swam, and as he rose out of the water in the moonlight prowling [[Orcs]] shot him. Only two of the ambushed survived, one of which was his esquire which brought the shards of [[Narsil]] to [[Rivendell]].<br /> <br /> [[Category:Battles]]</div>
