Oh, that is lovely. Well done indeed, mystery author! I can just see and hear them all behind the Falls. Boromir would still have been in Rivendell at the Solstice, wouldn't he, just about? - probably with feasting and songs and tales in the Hall of Fire; even though it's not mettarë for the Elves I'm sure Mid-Winter must have been marked...

I wish I'd been able to sign up for 3_fan this year, but RL and work and general pre-Christmas stress, plus barely having written anything between blowing up midway through B2MEM in March and about October, meant I really didn't have the confidence. Next year, I hope.

Beautiful - thank you so much! I particularly like the evocative descriptions.

Lovely Middle Earth imagery and lovely brotherly nostalgia!

Oh, that was lovely.
The imagery was beautiful. I could almost smell the meat roasting and feel the chill in the air.
Poor Faramir. *pets him* So wanting to please his father and so missing is brother. *sigh*
Bittersweet and gorgeous!

Absolutely wonderful imagery here with just a hint of melancholy, I think. Nicely done.
