| Ooh! I like the "explanation" you've given for Eowyn's uncomfortably sudden change of mind at the end of RoTK. That had always bothered me, so I really appreciate your back story here. I also appreciate the simple, uncomplicated language. Sometimes the straightforward stuff evokes stronger responses than the most lavish poetry. However, I did stumble over a couple of terms, particularly "powerfulness" and "acceptation." These are real words, but they aren't in standard usage. Do you know if they were used commonly in earlier English? Generally, folks use "power" and "acceptance" as the nouns. |

eowynangel,
I liked the glimpse you provided of Rohirric culture through the eyes of Hildegard. And you nicely showed that even though Eowyn clings her role as Shieldmaiden of Rohan, she is not unfamiliar with being a healer. And as was noted above, it provides insight into the foundations of her romance with Faramir. |
