When Sam was enduring tempation by the Ring hanging around his neck, what fantasy moniker did he imagine himself having? His fantasy title?

Gordis, my mistake. I thought Borlas was mentioned in ROTK. Maybe he was not born yet. He is a character in The New Shadow (Peoples of Middle-earth, p. 411): "One of these was old Borlas of Pen-arduin. He was the younger son of Beregond, the first Captain of the Guard of Prince Faramir, who had removed with his lord from the City to the Emyn Arnen."
Ask the next question. |

My bad, didn't remember the New Shadow too well...
Perhaps the next question should be yours? Anyway, here is mine: How old was the Mouth of Sauron? (Give a rough estimate and explain why). |

Maths are not your strong point, guys. Next question: What did the Standard of Harad look like? |
