Flower of Gondor

Faramir and Ciara sat side by side eating their breakfast in silence. It was three days since Ciara had talked with Boromir and Faramir had issued his warning and Boromir was still training as hard as ever with the guards.
"Faramir, Ciara." A voice called softly from behind Ciara and Faramir. Both turned to see Boromir standing, sullen face, behind them, "Can I join you two?" Boromir couldn't even look them both in the eyes as he asked this.
"Yes." Faramir nodded and scooted down the bench so Boromir could sit with them.
The three sat in silence for a few minutes, each to shy or embarrassed to say anything. Finally Boromir broke the silence.
"I'm sorry." That was it, that was all he said.
Ciara looked at Boromir and smiled, "I'm sorry."
Faramir gave Boromir a brotherly hug and Boromir stood to embrace Ciara as well.
"I won't leave you like that again."
"You'd better not." Ciara warned jokingly, glad that Boromir had realized his folly.

"My lord! My lord!" Theoden's advisor raced into Theoden's study, "the lady Theoden is ailing!"
"What?" Theoden jumped to his feet and followed his advisor down the hall.
"She's, she's gone my lord!" The serving maid came out of the door in tears.
The lady Theoden had been sickly ever since Theodred had come home with some strange illness that no healer in all of Rohan could quite place.
Theoden sighed and stepped into the room, first Eomund's wife and now his own. The castle was now suddenly bereft of a woman's influence and Theoden knew that little Eowyn and Eomer would need that care.
"Take her body to be prepared for burial please. And take the children, including Theodred to the study to the tutor please." Theoden ordered his advisor.
"Yes, sire." The advisor nodded and left to do his duty.
Bad times had fallen upon Rohan, Theoden could feel this was just the beginning.
