Hello! Welcome to my Eomer story! I adore him and I don't feel that he gets as much love as he deserves! I know it's short... but this is just the beginning...
Disclaimer: I don't own the Lord of the Rings... just my Oc...
I watch from the balcony as many maidens arrive from the surrounding estates, noble Rohan women and a few Gondorian as well. I gaze solemnly at them and vaguely wonder who will be Rohan's next queen. I turn back and walk into the room I have been occupying for the last few days and make my way over to the lounge chair. I pick up my book and return to my reading, while attempting to ignore the sound of hooves outside. I don't want to think about the fact that Eomer will be married soon. I've been perhaps a little too fond of him since we were young and although I've never been one of those dreamy girls who presumes they will marry the man they love, it still stings.
It isn't long until Eowyn comes stomping into my room. Clearly, she is unimpressed with the arrival of the women who are to be matches for her brother.
"This is silly!" She rages as she paces about my room, "You should be marrying my brother! There is no need for this! He is too blind to the see the truth! His true match is right in front of him!"
I roll my eyes at her behavior, "Eowyn... I have never presumed that I would marry your brother."
"Well you should!"
"He does not see me as such... I have always known that he would one day marry a different woman and I am prepared."
She glares at me, "Sounds like you've given up!"
I roll my eyes, Eowyn has always wished for me to be her sister and as we got older she deemed it natural that I would simply marry her brother. However, I know better... I am not the women that his eyes follow.
"How have I given up?"
"You have already conceded defeat to these women! If you don't even try to win my brother you will clearly lose!"
"Why are you so impassioned about this?" I question in exasperation as I set my book down, deciding that I won't be reading any time soon.
"Because you are the rightful wife of my brother and queen of Rohan!"
I give a soft smile and roll my eyes, however am I supposed to make her understand that it simply isn't me...
Hey all I hope that you enjoyed the short prologue! If you did (or didn't) please let me know in a review!
