Allison answers “Where was Gondor when the Westford fell?”

Timothy Morrison asked this question about The Return of the King (The Lord of the Rings, #3):

Where was Gondor when the Westford fell?

At that time, Gondor was in the same place it is located during later events: encompassing all the land south of the Ered Nimrais range to the sea. Also, the events to which you are referring took place while the Fellowship was still in Parth Galen, so your question should really be directed at the earlier part of the story often referred to as The Fellowship of the Ring. Also, and most importantly, LOL. :)(less)
