Hooooray!

Nice to see another chapter of this great story. I really enjoyed how you handled the wedding night. I like the idea that Faramir didn't think he was meant to have a meaningful relationship and then found one. Nicely done.

Ah ha! I knew the evil Lord Haralil was up to something. Who is going to save them! And poor Tamir, too. Have really enjoyed his character. Can't wait for the next chapter!

You didn't give Faramir much time to enjoy the bliss of marriage. It seems both he and the King underestimated to what means Lord Haralil would revert should his freedom and his business be threatened. Now you have me sitting on the edge of my seat, biting my nails in anticipation of the next chapter ;-)

BTW, I really loved the Éowyn's and Faramir's little ceremony. What a loving way to honour their loved ones who lost their lifes in the terrible war.

No! Just as things are going so well, too. A moment of rare happiness for Faramir and then everything explodes again. (It's a wonder he survived, that boy, with all those head injuries he keeps incurring!)

If the warning had only arrived a few hours earlier, that horrible Lord Haralil would not be able to do this! (It seems as if his son is an all right sort - who needs to be fostered by some sensible upright family who will Teach Him Right From Wrong).

I do hope the nice bits about Tamir and his future are not just to soften us up for his death.

Eowyn and Arwen to the rescue! Please!

Poor Faramir always in the thick of trouble.

Thank you for sticking with me, I really appreciate your comments.
