Does anyone know if there is anything canon about Rohan in the Fourth Age other than the timelines in the back of ROTK (about 10 yrs after Eomer became king)? I need to know if Rohan still had enemies attacking their lands and if so, who were they? Plus who would be his second in command in Edoras. I read Rhaps stuff from the other post -

about Erkenbrand was made Marshal of the West-mark and Elfhelm Marshal of the East-mark but who would take charge if Eomer left Edoras on a mission? They would go with him on the mission I am assuming.

This is for an AU story so it doesn't follow the story lines with him marrying Lothiriel but I am trying to be accurate to a certain degree even though its AU and some aspects have changed.

If someone can just point me in the right direction of this information, I will gladly read it!

Don't know if this is what you mean by the stuff in the appendices, and if so if you already know this, but it does say that Eomer and Aragorn went off fighting foes together into the Fourth Age. So there were still enemies.

Since it's sitting next to me;

Well, remember that Théoden ordered Éowyn to take over the shop while he rode with Éomer to war? So my guess would be that Lothíriel would be the one in charge.

But a full muster is rare, the one for the War of the Ring was the second one, IRRC for Rohan. If Éomer chooses to ride with his first & second marshall, some logic tells me that the third marshall keeps an eye on Edoras.

It is recorded that after Théoden's funeral, when Éomer reordered his realm, Erkenbrand was made Marshal of the West-mark, and Elfhelm Marshal of the East-mark, and these titles were maintained, instead of Second and Third Marshal, neither having precedence over the other. In time of war a special appointment was made to the office of Underking: its holder either ruled the realm in the King's absence with the army, or took command in the field if for any reason the King remained at home. In peace the office was only filled when the King because of sickness or old age deputed his authority; the holder was then naturally the Heir to the throne, if he was a man of sufficient age. But in war the Council was unwilling that an old King should send his Heir to battle beyond the realm unless he had at least one other son.(ii)

Let me see what I can find un Unifished Tales for you. If you have it yourself, then it is the chapter the Fords of Isen.

Elfwine: Son of Éomer and Lothiriel. Elfwine strongly resembled his grandfather, Prince Imrahil of Dol Amroth. Elfwine became the King of Rohan after the death of his father in the year 63 of the Fourth Age. He was born early Fourth Age. But I can't find a specific date.

Rhaps - like I said this is an AU story and Lothiriel and Elfwine are not part of it. I will look in the UT too.

Well the council thing is interesting though...
