Does Eowyn become mortal?
She was often called Arwen Undómiel or “Evenstar”. In marrying Aragorn II Elessar after the War of the Ring, she became Queen of the Reunited Kingdom of Arnor and Gondor, and like Beren and Lúthien before her, she united Elf and Man in peace, while becoming mortal.
How does an Elf give up immortality?
The elves, or the Eldar, are immortal in the sense that they cannot die from illness or old age, however they can be slain. If living elves are separated from Valinor too long, however (such as those that chose to live in Middle-earth instead), they can experience a sort of dying that is explained as fading.
How is Elros related to Aragorn?
Elros chose Mankind, became the King of Numenor, and from him were descended all the Kings of Men, down to Gondor. Elrond, however, chose to be an immortal Elf, founded the haven at Rivendell, and had his daughter, Arwen. (Yes, that does mean Arwen and Aragorn are related, but very distantly).
How old would Arwen and Aragorn be now?
Aragorn would die in Fourth Age (FA) 120, at the age of 210 (As the timeline notes, the Fourth Age began in March of 3021). Arwen would die one year later in FA 121, at the age of 2,901. We know that the Dúnedain can live approximately 3 times the lifespan of an average man, so about 210-240 years.
Could Arwen have lived longer as a mortal?
Indeed, it is clear that Arwen died of a ‘broken heart’, so it is conceivable she could have lived longer as a mortal. As she died, she unquestionably did turn mortal, she just had the benefit of living a long time before she made her choice.
Who is Arwen in The Lord of the Rings?
Arwen is Elrond’s daughter, and thus must choose between going to the Undying Lands with her father and living forever, or staying in Middle-earth with Aragorn and eventually dying. All Elrond’s children must make the same choice; but only Arwen decides to stay in Middle-earth and become a mortal.
