  • My Time in Middle-Earth is a project I started long ago. It now consists of over 200+ songs, and is still growing. Songs are all made with FL Studio 5. They are more or less just ideas and inspirations put together to form simple drafts. All songs are about Middle-earth: events, adventures and contemplations.
    Picture is from The Return of the King
    Song about the showdown between Eowyn and the Witchking. Eowyn's search for dead and glory culminates at this moment. Fear has driven everyone else away from the dying king but Eowyn stay beside him no matter what comes to be. I didn't want to add lyrics/text to the video since there is just too much of it so I'll add it to the bottom of this bit so you can read it there at your own leasure.
    It's ofcourse based in Tolkien's own depiction of the moment, I just made it look more like the way I write things.
    This is now the second Eowyn song I made that at the very end felt displeased and decided to rewrite the whole thing in case you wondered why so long pause in releases...
    From the Album: Horse and the Rider
    Feedback on sound quality appreciated
    I own all the rights for the music/lyrics (Story by J.R.R. Tolkien)
    Text with timestamps:
    Alone stood the maiden
    beside her fallen king
    Tears falling down
    her windswept cheeks
    Spot of sunlight
    warming her skin
    Moment most surreal
    0:11
    Silence and calm
    Absence of time
    Moment of respite
    before the surge
    into the trial
    of the unknown
    0:22
    In the shadow of darkness
    Merry closed his eyes
    Eowyn stood defiant
    Her faint voice was resolute
    unyeilding...
    0:33
    Face the Deathbringer?
    Bravest of men have already fled
    Blinded by fear
    Why not join them?
    or die here...
    0:44
    My king lie here dying
    It is my duty to guard him
    You shall not have him!
    Fiend of Sauron...
    Others may fear death
    but I welcome it!
    Indeed, I came here to die
    And yet as she spoke, she held her shield
    more tightly to her chest
    1:07
    Firm hands and shining steel
    Wind caught in her golden locks
    Flickering in the sunlight like dancing fire
    Doubtless in the moment of absolute terror
    Witchking of Angmar
    Mordor's finest
    against Rohan's shield maiden
    Daughter of Eomund
    the one with the frozen heart
    1:29
    Held by Denethor's madness,
    the White Rider was absent
    at this pivotal moment
    Destiny however... was not
    Brought by desire to die,
    Eowyn would now face the Nazgul lord
    and perhaps her wish would be granted
    Death and glory...
    1:51
    Feet firmly on the ground
    Eowyn used her shield to hide
    from the burning gaze of the Witchking
    No training prepared her for this
    This foe was beyond her skill
    2:05
    Cold steel
    Black breath
    Darkness
    Towers over her small frame
    2:21
    In this fight
    spirit shatters first
    Darkness dominates the light
    and still...
    2:36
    Light breaks free
    from the shackless of clouds
    to shine again
    brightly from the open sky above this wartorn world
    At this time
    Our little soldier
    from far distant land
    Found his courage
    tugged away within
    his little heart
    3:21
    Fool!
    No man can kill me
    And all I see is a frail mortal standing before me
    To these words Eowyn laughed
    Frail I may be
    and small in stature
    but I am no man!
    3:43
    Eowyn threw off her helmet
    and she let her hair fly free
    Bright was the flame in her eyes
    and upon her steel
    Wraithking stood silent
    doubting perhaps
    before thrusting his great weapon forward
    3:58
    With such tremendous force
    that Eowyn's shield shattered
    and so did her arm
    Her knees now hitting the ground
    as the great shadow was looming over her
    ready to claim another soul for the dark lord
    4:12
    End was near for the Rohirrim's bravest
    But at the same time Merry crawled his way
    ever closer to the monstrosity
    Eowyn will not die today
    Decisions they all made
    would come to play here
    4:28
    The blade once forged
    Somewhere in the north
    Found it's way right here
    and how eager it was
    to dig deep into the invisible
    flesh
    holding this dark being
    in the physical world
    4:42
    Agony halted the Witchking
    Merry's tiny voice woke
    stunned Eowyn back on her feet
    Without hesitation
    she pushed her blade
    into the emptiness
    off the helmet
    Shriek exploded along
    the battlefield
    And the Witchking's
    evil spirit died
    and he was no more
