Cirion
the Steward of Gondor who swore the Oath of Eorl
Name and Story
Cirion was the Steward of Gondor in the later age, in the time of the great peril of the plains. When the enemies of the South and East threatened the kingdom, he sent the swift rider Borondir north to seek the help of the Éothéod; and at their crossing he swore with their lord Eorl the Young the great oath of friendship — the Oath of Eorl — by which the horse-lords were granted the land that became Rohan. His name is remembered among the wisest of the Stewards and the friends of the North.
