Nope not correct. Aragorn said that in RotK not TT so the answer is not valid.

Based on that, DB should be awarded the question, yes?

no, you're correct by the sounds of it, so you should post the next question.

DB was not correct. It explicitly says "I will keep Eomer and ten riders," the king said. Keep, not take.
DB you can post a new question anyway.
