Denethor, Last Ruling Steward of Gondor - Epic Character History

Denethor was the last ruling steward of Gondor, whose life was one of tragedy, and while he may not have been the most heroic of characters, he fought many battles of will against the Dark Lord Sauron directly. Thank you all so much for watching, let me know your thoughts on Denethor in the comments below! As always, a great thanks to the online artists whose visual works made this video possible!
