I haven't read any Boromir / Faramir stuff for a long time and so was pleasantly surprised to find this on the latest added page today. I always find the story of Finduilas so sad, and it's one of the reasons I can never truly dislike Denethor. Between losing his young wife and then his battles with Sauron through the Palantir, I really feel for the guy at times. But here, he's just kind of a shadow in the background, which works - he's not totally forgotten so we get the feel of how much Finduilas' death affected him too. With Boromir and Faramir, I found the characterisations really gentle and subtle, if that makes any sense. It was a nice, quiet moment between them, a little bit of reflection. And the last line was just so poignant.

Very nice work.

This was a very nicely told story about Boromir and Faramir's mutal loss and the love between the brothers. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing! Smile smiley face

I love how you have interacted the two brothers.

I always love it when you write Faramir when he remembers his mother. Just as in Priceless Treasure, you give us a peek into his soul. To me their grief has slowly grown into missing their mother and pain is replaced by warm thoughts and feelings, even towards their father. Gently written and the end of it came too soon!
