| Sindarin meaning 'elf-man'
Elda, son of Elrond and Celebrķan and identical twin brother of Elrohir. With
his brother he rescued Celebrķan from an Orc-hold in TA 2509, and ever after
the brothers rode against the Orcs with the Rangers to avenge their mother's
torment. During the War of the Ring Elladan and Elrohir rode south with
Halbarad, and accompanied Aragorn from Rohan to the Morannon. Because
of their Elven-wisdom and the counsel they had received from their father
before setting forth, Elladan and Elrohir were resent at the Councils of the
Lords of the West, and may themselves have been numbered among the
Lords. |
