In the Kingdom of Gondor, King Eldarion heard the news.
"A herald from my father? What news do you bring?" said Eldarion, and herald spoke the words of Pippin, about the Daleks- and the destruction of the Shire.
"You must rally your legions! The Daleks can be stopped! Our legions will defeat theirs- our bows will knock them down, our swords will slice their armor! They can never stand against the vigilance of Men, the wisdom of Elves, the power of Dwarves, and the rest of the free peoples of Middle Earth! We cannot lose!" stated the herald.
"They turned the Shire into the dust. We have no knowledge of how powerful they are. But if we are to die- we are not to be found, shrivelling up in hiding. We are die bringing them down- like how my father, Elessar, did at Morannon- we all shall do to defeat the Daleks! The Might of Middle Earth shall cascade upon these foul invaders!" declared Eldarion, and in that moment he seemed greater than his father.
Eldarion left, leaving it to his steward, Ecthelion, to sort out a public rally later that day. He meant war- a war to end all Dalek life, permanently.
"People of Minas Tirith, people of Osgiliath, people of Dol Amroth, people of GONDOR! Our great allies, the halflings, who saved us from the wrath of Sauron are dead or captured. They are no more. Invaders from the sky- the Daleks- have come and killed them all. We shall march northwards- unite and fight the Daleks, or die. Do we have a choice? You all saw the first red dawn in years. Now- we fight! Now- they die! FOR GONDOR!" declared Eldarion in front of thousands of citizens of Gondor.
"FOR GONDOR! WE SHALL DIE IN ITS SERVICE! FOR GONDOR!" chorused the people of Gondor. They did not stop. It was midday when they started. They finally disbanded at sunset. Just about each and every one of them went home and grabbed whatever weapon they had. Others, too, grabbed weapons. The next day, they rallied in the Fields of Pelennor, and Eldarion came to lead them, and the march northwards began.
Elfwine was the Prince of Rohan. Eomer was old, and sickly. He would not be leading the Rohirrim to battle as Eldarion wished. But Elfwine took his riders, and added them to the might of the Gondorian horde. Rohan and Gondor united. Their forces marched northwards into the land of Dunland.
