There is some very interesting information about Ecthelion II (Denethor II's father). He had the aid of a great captain who had come out of Rohan where he was a stranger as well. This captain went by the name of Thorongil. He motivated and helped Ecthelion II marshal his forces against Mordor. After he deafeated the captain of the Corsairs of Umbar, he mysteriously disapeared much to the dismay of Ecthelion II, but said that many tasks awaited him before he returned to Gondor, if that be his fate. I hope you know who Thorongil was.
