"Olorin" Luthien asked with confusion "What did just happen? And what is the meaning of your words?" But Gandalf just smiled and said "Come"

They all made their way to the first level and then the gates; Prince Imrahill of Dol Amroth was with them. Once they passed the broken gates, all of them, with the exception of Gandalf showed their surprise.

There were bodies' everywhere, mostly orcs and trolls and also many oliphants, sadly there were also many Rohirrim. The battle had been terrible in the pelennor fields as well as inside the city.

Amidst all the carnage they saw Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli standing in front of an army of Ghost. They approached them as Aragorn told them "I hold your oath fulfilled. Go. Be at peace"

The King of the Dead smiled. There is a great wind and the Army of the Dead disappears. Aragorn then looked around, and saw his friends, Gandalf bowed low to him.

As they came closer, Prince Imrahill went to his knees and said "My lord, my king" he knew that only the king could have commanded the oath breakers and carry the sword of Elendil.

But Aragorn attention was turned to the wounded and said "There will be a time for that Imrahill, now we must go help the survivors"

Pippin was the first to run and search, for he knew Merry might be among them.

Finduilas and Luthien approached Aragorn and each hugged him but none said words thought there were tears in their eyes. Their attention was interrupted as they heard a familiar voice screaming in anguish

"Noooo" they turned and what they saw left them cold. Eomer was in the ground with Eowyn's body in his arms as he cradled her in his arms. His cousin theodred, who was fully recovered by now, also was there crying in despair as he also took his father in his arms.

They went there running, and as they knelt to examine them a light of hope filled Eomer's face "My ladies" he bowed to them. Finduilas had no healing abilities and watched as Aragorn took Eowyn in his arms and began to examine her while Luthien did the same with Théoden.

After a while Luthien's face softened "It's not as bad as it looks" she told the others "However I still need time with him. However Aragorn's face was somber as he examined Eowyn. Luthien approached him; her eyes grew wide as she touched Eowyn's face. "How did she get her wounds?" she asked with worry.

A soldier of Rohan that witnessed the whole event said "Lady Eowyn killed the witch king… the hobbit Merry helped her"

At that moment Pippin appeared carrying his fellow friend as he cried "Aragorn help him".

Aragorn and Luthien rushed to the Hobbit, and to their surprise they found that merry was still conscious but very weak

"Their endurance is incredible" Luthien said mostly to herself "Hobbits are not as weak as they seem to be, they have a great resistance to the dark"..

She turned to the others and said "They both have been poisoned by darkness…. I can't cure them on my own" she stopped for a moment but then, as if having a vision, she said "The hands of the king are the hands of a healer" She approached Aragorn and told him "It's time you accept your destiny Elessar, become who you were born to be"

They all waited for hours outside the house of Healing while Luthien, Aragorn and Gandalf tried to save their friends "Why is taking them so long??" asked a very anguished Pippin. Finduilas was about to answer, but then the door opened and Luthien came out.

She looked exhausted but was also smiling. "They are fine now" A sense of relief filled those that had been waiting, then she turned to Pippin and added "Your race amazes me. You really possess great endurance against evil. He has already woken and is having a meal"

Eomer asked "And my sister my uncle?" Luthien answered "We almost lost her to the darkness" she said "But we were able to bring her back. King Théoden is also still unconscious but I believe he will wake soon. Faramir is already awake"

Eomer kneeled in front of the elf and said while taking her hand "My lady, I'm afraid I will never be able to repay you for all your help" he said, but Luthien just smiled and said "Rise son of Rohan. Your friendship is enough for me, and besides it was lord Aragorn who in the end helped your sister to come back. Gandalf and I just helped him.

They entered and stayed in for a while visiting their convalescent friends and family. After a while, Aragorn had to excuse himself for word had spread in the city that the King had finally returned, and at the entrance stood the surviving captains and lords of Ithilien, Minas Tirith and Dol Amroth. Aragorn's kin, the rangers of the north, last descendents of the lost real of Arnor were also there. Gandalf went with him

Eomer and Theodred were at Eowyn and Theoden side, Pippin was at Pippin's while Finduilas and Luthien were at Faramir's trying to console him for he knew of his father's end.

"He loved you Faramir" Luthien told him as she caressed his face. Faramir Hadn't said anything since he had woken and both elves were worried for he just stared at the roof, his eyes filled with despair. When he finally spoke, his words filled their hearts with pity "I should have died in osgiliath… Father was right.. I was never good enough"

Finduilas took his hands and said "Don't said that Faramir.. We care for you, and we know that you are a worthy descendent of the great kings of the sea. I knew great men and elves in my own time, and few had your fealty and courage"

Faramir had been holding his emotions, but then he couldn't hold them anymore and began to cry; Luthien saw in his mind images filled with nothing but sad memories: A mother dying, a boy who grew unloved by his own father, a young man trying his best to win love and approval that never came. Only the memory of Boromir and the love they felt for each other consoled him, but now he was dead and Faramir felt alone in the world. As Luthien saw all this, her maternal instincts kicked in and with soothing words she made him sleep.

Finduilas stared at him and then at her friend and said "I saw it too" she said with sadness "His body may not be as gravely wounded as the others, but he is going to need more care".

They all stood as Gandalf came inside and said that Aragorn was waiting for them in the king's hall. Important decisions had to be taken.

Luthien kneeled and kissed Faramir on the forehead "Sleep and rest young one" then she chanted a small song of recovery. When she was done she raised and fallowed her friends
