Winged Nazgûl fly over the Pelennor before dawn

Event Type: Military/Strategic

Age: 3rd Age - Ring War

Date: March 16, 3019

Description:

An event in the aftermath of the Siege of Minas Tirith; see that entry for an overview:
'[Sauron] is watching. He sees much and hears much. His Nazgûl are still abroad. They passed over this field ere the sunrise, though few of the weary and sleeping were aware of them. He studies the signs: the Sword that robbed him of his treasure re-made; the winds of fortune turning in our favour, and the defeat unlooked-for of his first assault; the fall of his great Captain.

'His doubt will be growing, even as we speak here. His Eye is now straining towards us, blind almost to all else that is moving. So we must keep it. Therein lies all our hope.'

The Return of the King, LoTR Book 5, Ch 9, The Last Debate
