Boromir and Teddy  by Ithil-valon 6 Review(s)
LarnerReviewed Chapter: 1 on 11/10/2008
A gentle memorial for these two warriors, both slain by Orthanc. I'd not thought before of the fact they died on the same day, though. Interesting that Tolkien gave us this fact to hold to.

I like this gently story of mourning and comfort. It is a lovely idea to think that these two had been friends.

Most Excellently Well Done!!

Oh my goodness... this was a real tear-jerker. I loved how you began it in Faramir's bed... had a nice quality to it.

The kneeling by the mound was gorgeous - I loved that you gave each man their title! Blessed Boromir and Theodred....

Just a little disclaimer at the top or somewhere might be appropriate - something saying this is movie-based and not book-based? Just a thought.

Again - beautiful telling of a precious moment that I never thought of....

Author Reply: Thank you for the lovely review, Agape4Gondor. This is a moment that I imagined as I was writing To the King, but it never fit in that story. I'm glad that you enjoyed it as it was.

I confess I did not think of a disclaimer. I came to the movies before I ever read the books, so the line between the two has always been somewhat blurred for me. If I can figure out how to add it, I will.

Again, thanks,
IV

Oh, man. This is so touching *sniffle*. I really like the way you told this tale, Ithil-valon. It is one of my keepers.
