Agape's Attempts  by Agape4Gondor 2 Review(s)
LarnerReviewed Chapter: 55 on 11/15/2007
And how he did try! Wearing his armor night and day, spending even his own sons! Alas for Denethor!

Author Reply: Oh Larner... reading about him wearing the armor in the book really made me feel so sad for Denethor. Yes, he gave everything... And some would berate him.

This was very touching. I have to keep reminding myself that you are writing your universe :-) It would be a horrible burden to have to keep writing such missives.

Author Reply: Well, someone had to write them, Pearl, and I think Denethor would take that task from his son. Boromir was out in the field for long periods and wouldn't have the time to do such a difficult task. Writing one letter would be hard enough. Writing dozens...

I'm not sure what you mean about 'my' universe... I try to remain as true to canon as possible. I don't think it beyond the realm of that to have Denethor writing these.??? And who is to say this was not part of the burden that finally pushed this wise man over the edge???
