A week goes by with nothing new? I haven't killed this, have I?

It seems the answer to this question is in my head waiting to jump out. I almost recall the quote "And so he died: the last, who was greatest" or something like that. And unless I'm making it up or thinking of another book I'm going to kick myself if I can't find the answer.

*thinks about it*

It's probably not as complicated as you might think.

Hurin, who was "greatest of the warriors of mortal men" if I've got the quote right; and the last of the House of Hador to fight in the Nirnaeth Arnoediad. In fact the last person to fight of anyone on his side there.

Another good guess, but not it.
Vaine was on the right track.

Hmm... I can feel the answer on the edge of my consciousness... I'm sure it's a Man, such as Tuor or Aragorn or Elendil.

Wait... wait... brainwave- Is it Thingol?

Negative. But you're correct that it is a Man. Sort of.
