Henderch

Henderch, of the Men of Númenor, was a sailor on the ships of Tar-Aldarion and a servant to his King. He accompanied Aldarion on the ship Hirilondë during his many journeys to Middle-Earth.

History
Henderch was presumably born and raised in the Númenorean region of Andustar. He became a sailor under Tar-Aldarion, following him in his travels, including the one in F.A. 873. When the Hirilornë returned to the harbors of Rómenna in the autumn of the year 882, Henderch was a steward to the prince (Aldarion did not become King until F.A. 883).

Henderch accompanied his lord during his nightly ride to Hyarastorni to consult Hallatan, Aldarions nephew. Afterwards, Aldarion spoke to Henderch and told him to ride homewards with his gratitude. Henderch replied, but to no avail. Aldarion would never go to Emerië again.
