Shards of Narsil has just left Hobbiton.
How about Barliman Butterbur?

He ran the Prancing Pony in Bree, which was a town on a hill. This may not fit well as I recall that the Inn was actually at the foot of the hill.

Hordes fear me...
My final battle I have seen
My enemies' weakness discovered
This time I do not recover
For as my enemy dies
with him I lie

We'll see if that's as easy as I think it is...

I think it isn't that ridiculously easy, as at least I cannot think now of anything that would really fit... of course I have some ideas, but they do not really fit...

Hi Morsul,

how about Theoden?

Hordes of orcs and Southrons ran from him at the Pelennor, which was his final battle, but he did get to see Merry and Eowyn top the Witchking before he died.

Also I made a spelling error here is the poem correctly spelled that might make it easier
