Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain's personal journal
We're running. Only I, Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain has a clue where we're going or what we're doing. Gimli is slow, Gimli is weak. Legolas has spindly legs, Legolas is weak. We run, until we meet the riders of Rohan and Éomer, who tells us they slaughtered the Uruk-hai, and possibly Merry and Pippin. So we go to look for their dead, scarred, smoking corpses.

Merry and Pippin survived, they are still weak. They ran into the forest.
Daily Orc rating: 0, not for lack of trying
Daily King rating: 2
Gimli and Legolas are both nervous in the forest, they are weak. They are scared when we come upon the White Wizard, who is Gandalf, who didn't die, which isn't too bad, at least he has more sense than Legolas and Gimli, and Merry and Pippin. So we take the route out of the forest and Galdalf calls his horse, we have the horses Éomer gave us, Legolas and Gimli share, I ride my own, because I am Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain and rightful King of Gondor.

Gandalf knows that we are needed in Rohan, that the Great Eye at Barad-dûr is watching Rohan, with his spies in Edoras. Of course, I, Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain and rightful King of Gondor, knew this too. So we ride to Edoras, to the Golden Hall of Médúseld.

Gandalf frees King Theoden, nothing I, Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain and rightful King of Gondor couldn't have done and we meet Éowyn, she is not as pretty as Arwen. Two children are seen on the horizon and bring news that Saruman's Orc's are burning Rohan's villages, but Theoden does not want to fight, Theoden is weak. After a big argument, he decides the wrong choice, we are to go to Helm's Deep, to our deaths. Gandalf goes for more help, just because he doesn't want to fight, Gandalf is weak.

Gimli fancies Éowyn, Gimli is weak, he is wanting after two women and that shows his weakness. I, Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain and rightful King of Gondor only wants. . . two women. Éowyn makes disgusting stew, she is weak. Legolas spies wargs riders from Isengard, Éowyn takes the women and children to Helm's Deep, we men, stand and fight the wargs. I kill many, then one catches my wrist and we tumble over the cliff. I see darkness, but this does not prove my weakness.

My horse comes to me, drawn like a magnet and we start the journey to Helm's Deep, to Theoden and to his people, who stand no chance without me. Legolas greets me, not so friendly and gives me the Evenstar, I thought I was rid of that thing! Unfortunately not. Éowyn is pleased to see me, as is everyone, because I am their saviour. Theoden is fitting his men with armour, most cannot fight, they are weak.
Haldir and the Elves come to our aid, they line the walls and behind, led by my command, because I am Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain and rightful King of Gondor and I am not weak.
The armies of Isengard march towards Helm's Deep, we can see them in the distance as we stand on the keep.
One of Theoden's men fires the first arrow. He was weak. The battle starts, ladders are put up against the walls and I am at the forefront, fighting Uruk-hai. Gimli shouts to Legolas that he has killed two, he is weak. Legolas has killed seventeen, he is weak. I, Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain and rightful King of Gondor has already killed thirty five. We brace the gate, but it does not stand too long. I tell Legolas to bring down the fire-bearing Uruk but he does not, he is weak, and the wall is brought down instead. Gimli and I, because Gimli is all the help I can find to forth from the gate to fight the Uruk-hai so Theoden can brace the gate again. Fifty eight, fifty nine, seventy three.
At first light I look to the east, Gimli is looking to the west, he is weak. And I see Gandalf, surrounded by the riders of Rohan who come to our aid, not that we need them now, I, Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain and rightful King of Gondor had led his army almost to victory. But Gandalf's small contribution helped. The remaining few Uruk-hai run to the forest, which must be a sign Merry and Pippin are alright. They are not strong, but not too weak, yes, they are weak.
Daily Orc rating: 10, technically the battle spread over two days, but 10, deffinately 10.
Daily King rating: 7, or maybe even 8
Gimli and Legolas dispute the number of slain Uruk-hai, forty two, forty three, I, Aragorn, son of Arathorn, Isildur's heir, one of the Dunedain and rightful King of Gondor killed six hundred and ninety one. I am the greatest!
Chapterly Wonderful Rating: 10, still, out of 10!
