Tuor of Gondolin has just left Hobbiton.
Shield

And of course, among others, two of PJ and friends errors were in not having
the Pelennor Fields in darkness which breaks (centering on Theoden's standard)
as the Rohirrim charge, and the foolish overuse of the Army of the Dead- which
makes the Rohirrim charge almost pointless.

Fey he seemed, or the battle-fury of his fathers ran like new fire in his veins, and he was borne up on Snowmane like a god of old, even as Orome the Great in the battle of the Valar when the world was young. His golden shield was uncovered, and lo! it shone like an image of the Sun, and the grass flamed into green about the white feet of his steed. For morning came, morning and a wind from the sea; and darkness was removed, and the hosts of Mordor wailed, and terrortook them, and they fled, and died, and the hoofs of wrath rode over them. And then all the host of Rohan burst into song, and they sang as they slew, for the joy of battle was on them, and the sound of their singing that was fair and terrible came even to the City.
