Minas Tirith

Minas Tirith has stood for thousands of years as a beacon to the Free Peoples of Middle-earth. A great walled, tiered city built upon the living rock of Mount Mindolluin, at the edge of the White Mountains. Known for its great gates, Minas Tirith has kept a long watch over the lands of Mordor. These days the gleam of the White City is only caught in the brightest light of a summer’s day. The Tower of the Sun has become the Tower of the Guard. The White Tree blossoms no more. The streets are half empty, and many of its rich buildings are falling into disrepair. The Stewards rule the kingdom, for a king has not sat on the throne of Gondor for nearly nine hundred years. These are the twilight years of Gondor.
