So two, three, days later.], Éomer was imprisoned for a night.

So this is how you write it!

She walked forward and saw that her brother was at Théodred’s side. She knelt beside him at Théodred’s bed and he turned such eyes of sorrow upon her that she felt her world start to give away under her. She followed his glance to her cousin’s side and her eyes filled with the horror of the loose blood red bandage. Her hand of its own volition picked up the bandage so she could see underneath. Red mangled slightly swollen flesh greeted her eyes. She shut out the horror of sight, but she could not stop the truth from lodging itself in her heart and twisting hurtfully as she finally accepted that her cousin was dying and no bluster, no amount of words thrown at the problem could deny it. She looked at her brother and she knew that his sorrow was now tragically reflected in her own eyes.
[Ah! But with this scene! Such full of emotion, between the siblings, I love that! And Théodred speaks here?]

Again that look of longing across Grima’s face and Éowyn was unfortunately not the only one to see it this time. Éomer saw as well and took a step forward only to be stilled by Éowyn’s hand, “Too long have you watched my sister…” his voice trailed threateningly.

Éowyn stated again, “We shall attend.” She ended with a slight nod.

Grima flicked another look of maliciousness at Éomer, nodded to Éowyn and was gone in a swirl of dark layers of robe and cloak.
[Oh boy.]

….Not all is lost, my friends. Much, yes, but not all.

Poor Theodred … :-(

Things are truly getting desperate, and it’s hard to keep their tongues. Understandable, but not likely to go well for them.

No. No it won't. At least not in the short term. These are dark days...

Thanks for writing!
