This is beautiful. I love the repeated phrases that frame each scene. | |

This is exquisite, Linaewen! I really enjoyed how seemingly simple but evocative your language is here.... And how the mood changes with the scenery, or is it vice versa? Beautifully done! - Barbara P.S. I used to make MEFA banners, and I have a (blank) one available that shows Boromir's funeral boat from the movie. If you'd like to use it for your story, you're welcome to download it from here: And a square version is here: Author Reply: Thank you so much for reading! Thanks, too, for the offer of the banner. The links for it didn't show up here at SoA, but I knew where to go to find it in the MEFA banners collections. I've downloaded it and will definitely use it with this story! | |

Absolutely stunning. Indeed, poetry in the form of prose. Well done, Linaewen! | |

Ah ha! Another Boromir tale from his mistress. Hauntingly beautiful. Each 'stanza' perfect in its place. I love the change of scenery while the thoughts of the warrior ever yearn for home. And the boat, the now loyal 'Elven' boat cradles him to the end. *sobs* Lovely. Just lovely. Simple yet exquisite. | |

Beautifully done. Poetry in the form of prose. Begun in hope, transitioning through desperation and sorrow, and back to hope once more. Lovely! | |

Truly lyrical, Linaewen. A beautiful worn indeed, and I rejoice that the boat brought him home in the end. | |
