Chapter four: Not my father's son

Drabble Summary: Faramir thinks about always being the unloved child, his brother, and his father.


Since my mother died when I was young I have not been my father's son.

I've been a shadow in my home. Always second best. Never trusted to do his bidding. Never my father's son.

Gandalf told me father loved me and would remember it before the end. As I felt the Orc arrows go deep into my chest I heard my brother's voice say--- You are father's son.

I learned it to be true when I opened my eyes, to see my Father's face, the look in his eyes saying, I love you son.

I am my Father's son.
