Life of the Witch-king of Angmar - Lord Of The Rings

This episode details the rise and eventual downfall of the Witch-king of Angmar, who served as the primary lieutenant of the Dark Lord Sauron. Likely descending from the ancient Black Númenóreans, this powerful sorcerer evolved into the most formidable of the nine Ringwraiths. He spent centuries destabilizing the kingdoms of Men, specifically orchestrating the collapse of the northern realm of Arnor through war and infiltration. His reign of terror culminated during the War of the Ring, where he led the assault on Minas Tirith and spread a paralyzing fear known as the Black Breath. Ultimately, the narrative highlights how he met his demise at the Battle of the Pelennor Fields, fulfilling a long-standing prophecy that he would not fall by the hand of man. His death at the hands of a woman and a hobbit marked a pivotal turning point for the free peoples of Middle-earth.
