Instead of making a simple portrait, I wanted to picture one of my favorite scenes from "The Fellowship of the Ring" so the drawing is made from 3 screen captures from that scene. The title is actually a part of the dialogue. In this scene, Aragorn tells Frodo: "I would have gone with you to the end. Into the very fires of Mordor"
