Faramir lounging in a tree- love it!

I also like the description of his hands as musician's hands- I definitely see him capable of that in a culture where lore would have often been sung.

Looking forward to future chapters.

Author Reply: Strangely, when I thought of putting Faramir in a tree, I didn't think as much of "ranger" than - say - him having a secret garden of his own. basically the same thing, i guess - now he has ithilien.

Oh yes, he's an 'artist', no doubts about it, but I can't exactly decide what kind of an instrument he should play... any suggestions?

Thanks for the review, and sorry I took so long to reply. Finals, papers, words words words.

Faramir certainly knows how to make a dramatic entrance! Jumping down from a tree is mysterious and romantic, and very much a Ranger-thing. I liked you making him a baritone; I always thought Faramir would have a deep voice.

How can Eowyn resist this guy, anyway? If it takes her too long a time to fall for him, just send Faramir my way!

Good chapter.

Author Reply: Yes, I did make her out to be quite enamored, and I suppose the tree thing was somewhat...juvenile? But I enjoyed it, if you can't tell. It was quite early in the morning (three i think) and i felt the need to finally post something. I hope that isn't going to be problematic later on. hmmm. I'm hoping to introduce a new cast soon, but that might take some work. Might.

Thanks again for the review, it keeps me going.
