The choice concerned with Arvedui is that of the Gondor leaders. When the King of Gondor is slain in battle, Arvedui sends message stating that he should be the new king of Gondor, thus uniting Gondor and Arthedain. Had that happened, Arvedui would have had an army great enough to defeat the witch-king and Angmar, and put Cardolan and Rhudaur under his rule. Then he would rule both Arnor and Gondor, a great realm indeed. But the leaders of Gondor chose to make Earnil king instead, which seemed to be the better choice. And so the witch-king were able to conquer Arthedain, and Arvedui was indeed the last king of Arthedain.
