Ghân-buri-Ghân
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ghân-buri-Ghân, or simply Ghân, is a character in the epic fantasy The Lord of the Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien. Ghân is the chief of the Drúedain, also known as the Woses, the wild men who inhabit Drúadan Forest. In the third volume of The Lord of the Rings, The Return of the King, he aids Théoden, King of Rohan, to reach Minas Tirith with reinforcements to counter attack before it is conquered by the enemy. In return, Théoden promises that his people will have peace with the Drúedain, and that his people will wage war and drive away the gorgûn (Orcs), that Ghân hates so much and that have been troubling the Drúedain. In the end of The Return of the King Aragorn, the newly crowned King of Gondor, gives the Forests of Drúedain to Ghân and his people, decreeing that none shall enter again without his leave.
