Description:
He was the son of Isilmo, who was the second child of Tar-Súrion.
"This name he had because he built a high tower upon the hill of Oromet, nigh to Andúnië and the west shores, and thence would spend great part of his days gazing westward. For the yearning was grown strong in the hearts of the Númenóreans."
