Winds of Change  by Lady Bluejay 50 Review(s)

Very sweet Eomer/Eowyn moment there. I love seeing Eomer being all big-brotherly.

But a gem has to be Eowyn struggling to get Eomer to comb his hair as they walk along the corridor. And she's planning on match-making for him. (Long dark hair and sparkling grey eyes, by any chance? On a maiden not found in a tavern.)

Eomer is a warrior's king, too. He's great with his men - and caring towards them too. I don't think he'll have any difficulty winning their hearts - if he hasn't already.



Author Reply: Watch out for more about his hair - she seems to have a thing about it.
The thing is I just think he is such a nice guy! LBJ

The camaraderie is wonderful. And now--the dreaded speech! Yes, good and proper for the new King of the Mark.

She's being obstinately quiet, isn't she? She'd best speak soon.

I also had messengers take advantage of the weeks in Ithilien to obtain fresh clothing for those of Rohan.

Author Reply: I have always thought someone must have provided clothes. Once I had Eomer wearing some of Boromir's. Once Lothiriel sent a load from Dol Amroth. LBJ

the effect was spoilt, he just looked like Aragorn dressed up.

I suspect that the rather kingly-appearing Eomer fears that he just looks like the Third Marshal dressed up in borrowed splendour. And I don't blame Eowyn at all for keeping his good clothes in a large bedroom in the Citadel.

I loved seeing him looking for Eowyn and watching jealously over her and Faramir - even as he feels a tug of attraction to the girl who ends up hugging Amrothos.

Riding in the morning. Well - he couldn't really expect to spend much time in Faramir's company any earlier than that. Not with the business of coronations and power transfers under way.

He's being very sweet about it all really. But Eowyn? Shopping for ribbons and lace and fal-lals like that? She must be in love!

Author Reply: Glad you liked that line. I was a favorite of mine. It always struck me that the clothes had to come from somewhere and I enjoy finding explanations for things Tolkien does not tell us! LBJ

Oh, oh! Eomer is *very* attracted to Nienna and even Eowyn has noticed.Not good at all.He will have to control his manly urges, methinks, if he wants to remain friends with Imrahil and his family.Interesting that Eomer falls for a woman named Nienna.

I like the fact that Eowyn sent away to Edoras for more refined clothes for Eomer to wear for the coronation and feast days afterwards.The Rohirrim probably had to deal with being thought of as heathens by the Gondorians for many years--but Eomer does scrub up well!

Poor Eowyn, being teased by her brother! I'm glad that he's happy for her and told her that Faramir die well in the ceremony.She's feeling very vulnerable and needs her big brother to accept Faramir as her future husband.I can't wait until Eomer and Faramir meet face to face!

Great work, LBJ, and I'm looking forward to more of your story.

Author Reply: I would certainly think he scrubs up well. Look out for more about scrubbing and a bit more teasing.LBJ

Hi. I left a review on this story at another site. So glad you have it here. Just want to let you know again that I am enjoying this. I love the comradery. I can picture Aragon and Eomer giggling about the cloak Gandalf has prepared for Aragorn. Poor Gandalf!.."pageantry is very important". I'm not sure if the ceremony will occur without any "shannanigans" with the hobbits there! Poor Pippin! Always putting his hairy hobbit foot in his mouth!! Can't wait for the update!

Author Reply: You will have to wait a few chapters for more hobbits.LBJ

Gandalf as costume coordinator for the coronation of Aragorn! Love it! And quite an interesting way to spend their last night together before Aragorn must take up fully his role as King of Gondor and High King of Men.

Author Reply: I always did think that Gandalf instigated it. He insisted Frodo wore a sword!LBJ

I like Aragorn and Eomer sniggering over the apparel considered suitable for kings. And laughing over Gandalf's theatrical streak.

Pippin is not showing himself as the sharpest knife in the drawer, though. Needs to know when to keep his mouth shut! Eomer took it quite well though. And the theatrical Gandalf more or less told him Eowyn and Faramir's relationship was fated to be, so live with it!

Amrothos's true love is coming, then - but not Lothiriel? How is our orc-slaying Horse-Lord to meet Imrahil's daughter, then?

Looking forward to more.

I like it a lot so far! Please write next chapter from lothiriel's point of view! P.S. I liked all your other stories about Eomer and Lothiriel. Didn't read the R rated one though. hee-hee. not really ready for that yet.

Author Reply: Glad you like it, but I am afraid you will have to put up with Eomer's POV. A lot is already written. LBJ

This was wonderful! I do like your Eomer/Lothiriel stories and this one seems very intrigueing from the start.That the gang were all together before Aragorn's coronation, with Imrahil and his sons',was particularly enjoyable--but Pippin, of course, had to put his foot in it again.The tension from Eomer was palpable and Pippin was lucky that Eomer already knew of Faramir's quality!

I'm looking forward to meeting your Lothiriel and then the real fun will begin when Eomer realises that *she* is the one for him.Can't wait.

Update soon!

Ali.
