Relapse  by Periantari 2 Review(s)

Oh my! I missed your earlier updates. The good thing about that is I can look forward to reading a couple more already-posted chapters this week.

Faramir looked tired most of the time when he saw him. This rings true. Not only is Faramir probably still recovering from his wounds and the Black Breath, as well as his father's and brother's deaths, but he is heavily weighed down with responsibility, both self-imposed and that required by his office.

He just kept pushing forward. Isn't that the way people often deal with impossible circumstances? Like Pippin told Merry, "Foot by foot." But eventually, something's gotta give, as they say.

Young Belegion shows a lot of wisdom in his letter.

A meeting unrelated to state affairs? (Beregond?)

(I certainly hope Faramir will be safe returning home!)

Author Reply: Thanks so much! take your time reading and reviewing.
Yes, i think Faramir would tire himself out with rebuilding Gondor and not care about how he really feels for a while, therefore the muse wanted to look into this time.
A lot of us push forward and not think about the circumstances relating to self-care. Especially if one wants to forget the past faster.

You are never alone, dear Lord and we do only have one world to appreciate. Also there are those that still care for you

How lovely. It's wonderful for us to meet Faramir's friends -- and for him to know he has many of them.

Author Reply: Yes, i am glad for the Fellowship and esp the hobbits to give him some hope and comfort. :)
