Fell Memories by Gwynnyd
Though Aragorn left Gondor in the triumph of the Corsair defeat saying he planned to spend his time working against the enemy, he arrived at Lothlorien less than three months later 'on his way to Rivendell' and 'weary'. Would such a short time in the Wild 'weary' the intrepid Ranger, or did something much more drastic occur during the 'perils on the dark confines of Mordor"? Rated adult for violence. A series of twelve drabbles. With many thanks to my beta readers Oshun, Pen 52 and Súlriel.
