Priavel and his apprentices? family? team? seem to be very good at their job - and I'm not surprised they were excited at the prospect of making it big in Dol Amroth. (I notice there was no suggestion of Minas Tirith making a good destination for minstrels!) And they provided an excellent performance for Faramir and his big brother. Faramir must be having the time of his life here!
And Hurin has proposed! Not a lot of passion, of course - they hardly know each other - and marriage is far too important for declarations of love, but what he said was very touching. What more can he offer than himself and his loyalty, when it comes down to the nitty-gritty? I'm glad Achren is sensible enough to demand thinking time - and that he wants it to be her choice rather than her father's. |
