whimper... for Aragorn and Middle-earth. Tanaqui is certainly doing her best to make poor Gwynnyd pull the covers over her head and hide.
Sorry! Will stop writing Aragorn AUs for a while. *g*
The quest certainly stood on a knife edge, and power is so seductive. The best of intentions are so hard to put aside for a 'greater good'.
Exactly. Just give me the Ring and I'll put everything to rights.... But as Legolas said:
'In that hour I looked on Aragorn and thought how great and terrible a Lord he might have become in the strength of his will, had he taken the Ring to himself. Not for naught does Mordor fear him. But nobler is his spirit than the understanding of Sauron; for is he not of the children of Lúthien?'
