| Thanks for keeping the story going. Can’t wait for Aragorn to show up. | |

| Hurrah! I see more! But I don't really remember some things so I will have to start over from the begining, or at least when Boromir continues South. Unfortunately I will probably have to wait as I am supposed to be busy. But I will get to it at some point! | |

| How generous-hearted of Merry to want to relieve any worry Boromir might have about him. | |

| What news of Boromir the Bold? For he has been long away. Denethor has decided to live, and to let Faramir live. But he will still go to the houses of healing, where Éowyn will go...so it is time for Éowyn to be in this story! I wonder what Boromir will think of her? Here is to Boromir the Bold and Faramir the Faithful. | |

| "But since when have I taken the easy way?" Ah, Boromir. There's a lesson in those words, somehow. I still find myself pondering the difference between the brothers. How was Faramir able to say, 'Not even if it lay by the wayside...' and yet Boromir still cannot seem let the thought go? Delay no longer! Bravely spoken, but also a true assessment. With every passing moment, the Hobbits have been borne further into danger. This scene reminds me so much of stories where a wounded warrior stays behind, typically intending to serve as a living booby-trap if and when the enemy happens on him, in order to assure the survival of his comrades. (Indestructible but not invincible. Lovely word-contrast for consideration.) (And I am hoping that Gondor will come. And quickly.) | |

| Every couple of months I check in with this site for nostalgia's sake. I've been reading here since I was a child, and I'm so pleased to still see activity here even though I'm most definitely beyond young age now. And everytime I see this story pop up and one or several new chapters to read. It never fails to delight me! You've captured the spirit of Tolkien so well in your writing style. And I love the idea of Boromir returning home to his family, and I'm very curious to see what changes will come now that Denethor is almost certainly going to survive the siege of Minas Tirith. Thank you so much for writing and continuing to share this story! | |

| "Easier, perhaps," growled Boromir. "But since when have I taken the easy way?" Well isn't that just like Boromir all over! Along with his gallows humor. Reminds me of one of my characters whose mother told him he'd someday be using his last breath to tell a joke. At last, wisdom comes to Boromir, and he's able to be fully honest with himself and others. I'm glad when he decides he must consciously let the Ring and its false promises go. "The sooner we get to that heavy work, the better," said Aragorn. I agree! The longer I read, the louder my brain yammers in the background: But what about Merry and Pippin!!!? (Yay, Boromir! ...and someone may be on their way from Gondor, even now...) | |

| Aragorn's approach to a sucking wound using Middle-earth technology is fascinating. I like how Denethor and Farramir arrive separately at the same conclusion. And Denethor has a word of approval for Faramir! That seems surprising. Thank you for providing the translation in the notes! | |
