tbh Arvedui would annoy me vastly less if he’d accepted that Fíriel was the rightful ruler of Gondor, not him
#under arvedui's logic then hallacar should have king of númenor instead of ancalimë#(god forbid)#and herucalmo and pharazôn's usurpations were totally legit#and he argued that his logic was the actual law of númenor akjdfj;kadjkfa#even if fíriel was dead the rightful heir would be /aranarth/ (see herucalmo and alcarin!)#arvedui's only legitimate claim was as heir of isildur and iirc he wasn't even that yet#(and it's debatable too. just not ... actively misrepresenting history)#idc what malbeth says arvedui can fuck right off#anghraine rants#legendarium fanwank#legendarium blogging#arvedui#fíriel#honestly i'm not ... ever quite sure what jrrt was doing with the whole 'well in númenor...' shtick#i don't think he meant arvedui to come across as dickish as he seems to me#but it's such a /blatant/ misrepresentation#maybe it's just verisimilitude re: royal claimants#or giving gondor more of a reason to reject him#idk#arvedui critical#ondonórë blogging
