Description
'See! The beacons of Gondor are alight, calling for aid. War is kindled. See, there is the fire on Amon Dîn, and flame on Eilenach; and there they go speeding west: Nardol, Erelas, Min-Rimmon, Calenhad, and the Halifirien on the borders of Rohan.'
.
One of the most gorgeously iconic scenes in Return of the King, and a perfect showcase of the beautiful cinematography and soundtrack in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I like the contrast between this scene and the earlier one at Minas Morgul, where the war beacon from Mordor was a single, great sorcerous beam, discernible from miles around; here, Gondor's beacons are but tiny specs of flame in the mountains, insignificant by comparison, but put together they have the power to change the tides of destiny.
