The only information I can tell you is that in the year 3019 TA, there was reported a turmoil caused by Easterling ecologists against the devastation of their virgin forests for the sake of foreign trade commerce, which led to the retreat of another 10,000 troops of Rhun who were originally supposed to join the army at the battle of Dale, but now had to return to their home country to prevent ecologist rebellion. The indent of Arwen's wedding gown, thus, in fact saved the Western Middle-Earth from terrible fate. Think of what might have been: fire and savage swords in Eriador, night in Rivendell. And what more, there might be no Queen in Gondor - do you think Aragorn would marry Arwen without her wedding gown? But that has been averted – because Elrond picked an Easterling salesman's offer among all others. A chance-meeting, as we say in Middle-earth.

How many roads must a man walk go down, before you call him a "Strider"?
