Speaker: Hello, here we are live from Edoras, welcome to Radio Middle Earth.
It's ten o'clock and we already start very spectacularly and currently with an interview with Faramir, Boromirs brother and Denethors son. To Gondor, please!
Interview with Faramir
Interviewer: Hi you guys there in Edoras. Here is Ceridwen, I'm in Gondor in it's capital Minas Tirith, the white Town! Here still Denethor, the Truchsess rules as the substitute of the real King of Gondor. He doesn't want to accept that Aragorn, who is the King of Gondor, certainly is going to play his role soon.
Denethor has two sons, Boromir and Faramir. We all know Boromir, he was one human member of the Fellowship. We are all very shocked when we heard that he was killed, especially his father because Boromir always was and still is his favourite and most-beloved son. Faramir knows that and now he wants to show his father that his other son isn't useless and has the right to be accepted, too. Before he is going to start his ride only with a few riders, we will have the opportunity to talk to him- maybe the last time because this ride is almost the safety death. Oh, there he is, wait a minute… Faramir, Faramir, come here please! Thank you, Faramir! So what exactly are you going to do now, and why, I mean, it's not unlikely that you're going to die.
Faramir: First of all, I'm going to ride with my men to Osgiliath, to kill those Orcs. I know that I probably will die, they are many, we are few, they are strong, we are weak, but look, my father always loved Boromir more than me, he even wishes that I would have been killed. That's very hard for a son to hear from his father. has tears in his eyes Maybe I can win the pride of my dad for me when I do this- when I kill those orcs or when I die for him… Maybe then he sees me as his son, maybe than I'm worthy of being his son.
Interviewer: You have to know what you're doing, dude, but we wish you very good luck, come back please!
Faramir: I will fight as good and long as I can. Bye!
Interviewer: Bye then, Faramir… So, you see a very strained situation here in Minas Tirith and a family drama in addition. More information will be given to you later, the outcome of Faramir´s fight of heart and the following situation of Gondor.
Speaker: After this emotional report we need some music to relax again.
Music: In dreams, The breaking of the fellowship-- The fellowship -- song 17
Speaker: And now to Minas Morgul. We have the special honour to have an Interview with an orc.
