Burden of Guilt

by Linda Hoyland

A violent and tragic misunderstanding with Eomer threatens Aragorn and Faramir's friendship and the Steward's very life. Meanwhile Arwen prepares to give birth and Aragorn is faced with the loss of all whom he loves. Rated for violence,childbirth and dark themes. Under revision. Please note,this is not a new story. I am currently editing it for typos and was much surprised when it reappeared on the front page,which was not my intention. omega copie seamaste
