DETAILSOne night, Helm ventured out and did not return. At dawn, Héra found him standing at the gate, frozen solid, still gripping a Dunlending chieftain he had strangled. The enemy saw him and fled in terror. But the legend of Helm Hammerhand ended there.
Helm, mad with grief, grabbed a great spear and charged alone into the enemy host. He killed forty-two men before his spear shattered, then fought on with his fists, earning his legend. But the city was lost.
Wulf said nothing. He bowed, collected his father’s body, and rode into the snow. But his eyes promised a winter of woe. The Lord of the Rings- The War of the Rohirrim ...
Freca proposed a union: Wulf would marry Héra, and in return, Freca’s lands would be merged with the crown, making Wulf the heir. Helm laughed, a sound like grinding stone. “You come with a beggar’s bowl and call it a crown? My daughter is not a prize for a wolf pup.”
Spring came. The snows melted, revealing the bones of the fallen. Héra was offered the crown, but she refused. “I am a rider of the Mark,” she said. “My father’s bloodline ends with me. But Rohan will not fall.” One night, Helm ventured out and did not return
Two years passed. Wulf vanished into the Dunlending wilds, forging a secret alliance with the Corsairs of Umbar and the wild men of the White Mountains. Meanwhile, Héra grew close to a young noble, Léof, the son of a minor lord. But duty forbade love; her father saw her only as the “Shield of Edoras,” a warrior to be married for alliance.
He gathered the survivors: Héra, a handful of loyal riders, and the elderly lord Garulf. They fled to the ancient fortress of the Hornburg, a dark keep nestled in the ravine of Helm’s Deep. Behind its wall, the Deeping Wall, they locked the gates. But the legend of Helm Hammerhand ended there
They fought on the broken stones of the ravine. Wulf was stronger, but Héra was faster. She remembered Léof’s lessons, her father’s fury. As Wulf overextended, she sidestepped, drove her blade through the gap in his shoulder plate, and pushed. He fell onto the frozen river, which cracked beneath his weight. The current dragged him under.
