Aragorn, Gimli and Legolas find their squashed bodies, give up all hope and go mad; Aragorn eventually eating the other two. Stumbling back to Edoras, he berserkedly destroyed everyone in sight before chopping off his own head. Because of this, Gondor recieved no Rohirrim reinformements, and were vanquished by the Haradrim in the Battle of the Pelennor. Sauron then turns attention inwards, finds the Ring and becomes all powerful. Book ends 37 chapters shorter.
