ElfhildThéoden’s queenElfhild was the short-lived queen to King Théoden of Rohan. Very little is known of her origins or her early life, though there is some reason to think that she came originally from the Eastfold of the land.2 All we know for sure is Elfhild became Théoden's queen and bore him a son, Théodred, in the year III 2978. Elfhild died giving birth to her son, and Théoden never wed again, so by the time of the War of the Ring, Rohan had been without a queen for forty years. In that time, Elfhild's son Théodred grew to become Second Marshal, a strong and respected commander among the Rohirrim, but he was slain in the First Battle of the Fords of Isen during the War of the Ring.
