 THE FIELD OF BATTLE
Aragorn resolved that once the threat to Lossarnach was dealt with, he would call another council of war between the kings and lords of Middle earth in order to formalize a new plan of attack.
As soon as the arrows were released, the defenders of Lossarnach emerged from behind their shields and proceeded to deliver an equally deadly attack in a return barrage of arrows.
This time however, the archers of Lossarnach did not retreat behind their shields and continued to shoot, certain now that the enemy had little interest in them and was determined to deliver as many flamed arrows to the city in order to raze it.

Lossarnach’s defenders were not the only ones who knew how to make good use of their archers.
While some in Lossarnach were ready to leap to the conclusion that the enemy, discouraged by their vehement defence of the city, had left for good.
Though it was dangerous to emerge from the safety of Lossarnach’s walls, the sight of their fallen brethren lying in the field was too much for many to endure and that kind of demoralising prior to any engagement was a dangerous thing.

Aragorn’s first duty upon arriving in Lossarnach was to sent scouts away from the vale to find the exact whereabouts of the Haradrim force that could not be more than a few days away from Lossarnach by this point in time.

 Thevina - Thengel and Morwen
Morwen of Lossarnach and Thengel, 16th King of Rohan, appear only in Appendix A of Lord of the Rings, where this is written for Thengel (2905-80): "He took no wife until late, but in 2943 he wedded Morwen of Lossarnach in Gondor, though she was seventeen years the younger.
Thengel did not marry until he was 35, and when he did, it was to a woman named Morwen from Lossarnach, an area to the southwest of Minas Tirith.
If she did live into her 80s, it can be conjectured that she would have had an influence on Théodred since Théoden did not remarry, though it is also likely that his three aunts would also have stepped in to help raise him unless when they married they moved away from Edoras.

Lossarnach was nothing like the beautiful city of Dol Amroth, with its expansive bay, unending blue waters and almost foreign-looking architecture.
When they had visited, Ecthelion had explained that there was an Elvish presence there which had remained for ages, and that was what caused the hair on his skin to stand on end when he looked at the harbour.
The castle looking out over the endless sea was old, very old, and the line of Princes who had ruled it were said still to carry some of the blood of the deathless in their line.

In discussing the meaning of the names Arnach and Lossarnach, Tolkien decided that the "loss-" referred to the blossoms of the fruit trees in the region, which was planted with orchards by the Numenoreans.
The blossoms of Lossarnach were so varied and beautiful that the people of Minas Anor/Minas Tirith undertook "expeditions to Lossarnach to see the flowers and trees...."
Ioreth, the old woman working in the Houses of Healing in Minas Tirith, spoke of wandering through the woods with her sisters, and she mentioned the roses of Imloth Melui, which she enjoyed when she was young.
