Tolkien quote of the day:

Éowyn : It is possible to love more than one person (of the other sex) at the same time, but in a different mode and intensity. I do not think that Éowyn 's feelings for Aragorn really changed much; and when he was revealed as so lofty a figure, in descent and office, she was able to go on loving and admiring him. He was old, and that is not only a physical quality: when not accompanied by any physical decay age can be alarming or awe-inspiring. Also she was not herself ambitious in the true political sense. Though not a 'dry nurse' in temper, she was also not really a soldier or 'amazon', but like many brave women was capable of great military gallantry at a crisis.

Letter 244, The letters of JRR Tolkien

bullet Sapphire Aurae by Bejai Last Updated: 1/1/2004
There are times when duty must be higher than love. There are responsibilities that, once taken up, can not be put down. None who ever bore a ring a power was unchanged -- nor were those who dared to love even knowing such truths. This is a tale of Elrond, Celebrian, Vilya, Galadriel, Celeborn, Nenya, and the fading years of the Eldar. Complete.
