Another great chapter! Faramir referring to Aragorn and Imrahil as his "elders" is a hoot (well, Aragorn IS at least 40 years older than Faramir). Loved Faramir's wide-eyed excitement at being given such a wonderful sword (that made me think of the scene in Rivendell, in the movie, where Boromir just has to pick up Narsil and play with it, LOL). Mean old Denethor giving young Faramir such a commonplace sword--and only because the person it was made for had died! I liked Eowyn showing off her ability to read Sindarin (probably not that common among her people). But keep her away from his sword, already--no wonder Faramir was blushing... |
