Information About

Araphant




Araphant continued his father's policy of renewing contact with Gondor , and he forged an alliance with Gondor's King Ondoher , leading to a marriage between Ondoher's daughter Fíriel and Araphant's son Arvedui .

Four years later King Ondoher died by an attack of the Wainriders , and Araphant's son Arvedui made a claim for the throne of Gondor by right of his blood connection to Isildur , and his wife Fíriel, who by the laws of Númenor now should have become the Ruling Queen. This claim was denied.

Araphant died in 1964 T.A. and was succeeded by his son Arvedui.
