In the battle of the Pelennor Fields, with the aid of Merry she won great renown by slaying the Lord of the Nazgul and his steed. THe evil coming from contact with the Nazgul-lord, amplified by the years of waiting on Theoden in his dotage and by her hopless love for Aragorn, caused her to succumb to a severe case of the Black Breath. Aragorn released her from her illness with athelas, and while recovering she realized her true heart.
