In briefanswer capsule

Arciryas was brother to Narmacil II and thus stood inside Gondor’s ruling kindred. Through Calimmacil and then Siriondil he became ancestor of Eärnil, the captain later accepted as king once Gondor’s Dúnedain approved him for that blood. Arvedui in the North did not push a competing right by force against that decision; still his descendants retained the claim even after northern kingship had gone.
