As the armies of Isengard bear down upon Helm’s Deep, all those who can wield a sword are called to its defence – even those who would normally be deemed too young to fight. Amongst these is Haleth, the young son of Hama. Haleth has never seen combat, yet he possesses the makings of a true warrior, one who could rise through the ranks of the Rohirrim should he survive the battle of the Hornburg. Even as he fights, Haleth remembers the words of encouragement spoken to him by Aragorn, spurring him on to deeds far beyond expectation.

An aging man of Rohan, Aldor has lived within the safety of Edoras since before the crowning of Théoden as king. When the fires of Isengard began to spread and threatened those within Edoras, Aldor had no choice but to join his people and journey to the sanctuary of Helm’s Deep. However, as the armies of Isengard bear down upon the Hornburg, Aldor must take up a bow in defence of his people. His aging frame cannot hold a bow steady for long, and it often means he will end up losing his bow before called upon – whether intentionally or not!

Haleth and Aldor are two of the unlikeliest Heroes of the Rohan army list, yet the inspirational effect of Haleth’s valour in battle and Aldor’s skill (or some might say luck) with a bow is not to be underestimated!
