House of Pain
Dec. 11th, 2005 10:34 pmTitle: House of Pain
Rated: G
Summary: Imrahil ponders about the fate of Gondor shortly before he meets Aragorn, future King of Gondor.
Author Note: Written for the OSA Drabble Challenge #39: Rulers. I felt that Imrahil really needed a bit more story time.
I behold the ruins of a once so mighty house: Faramir clinging onto death, both Boromir and Denethor perished, my sister succumbed to the Dark Power. I wonder why my bloodline has suffered so. My own sons, princes by their own right, should make good Stewards, but I question the burden I will place on one of their shoulders.
Then he arises, his eyes sparkling like stars and his voice dispensing authority, as a King should be. And I know we will no longer know pain being relieved from this country ripped apart, and hope will rule our hearts instead.
