The hero’s coronation
Aragorn is one of the members of the Fellowship of the Ring and therefore one of the great heroes of the Lord of the Rings trilogy. When we meet Aragorn, he seems to be only a ranger and introduces himself under the name of Great-Step (Strider in original version). He saves the hobbits from a Nazguls attack in Bree and Gandalf not being at the rendezvous, he takes it upon himself to take them to the safety of Elrond. It is only at the time of Elrond’s council where they must decide what to do with the ring that it is revealed that he is in fact Aragorn, son of Arathorn, descendant of Isildur and therefore legitimate king of Gondor, long ruled by stewards until the return of the king. In the course of the story, Aragorn will prove his worth, courage, strength of character and leadership qualities by leading the armies of men while Sam and Frodo are on their way to destroy the ring. When the ring is destroyed and Sauron is finally dead, Aragorn is finally crowned king and marries his great love : Arwen, daughter of Elrond.
