"Oh, Boromir", Solatiri sighed as she looked at the night sky. "I miss you so much."

"Solatiri…I'm right here, my love…"

She turned to see Boromir standing a few feet away from her.

"Boromir", she gasped.

She ran toward him and wrapped her arms around him in a tight hug. Boromir wrapped his arms around her waist as her hands found their way around his neck as she pulled him in for a kiss.

"Boromir, my love. I miss you so much."

"I miss you too", Boromir said.

Solatiri sighed as she took his hand and pressed it against her stomach. They both noticed it was beginning to grow.

"I wish you could be with me", she said. "I don't know how I'm going to raise our child alone. We never married. Your father hates me. He won't accept me or this child into the family."

"I'm sure Faramir will help you", he said. "You have always been a sister to him. He will not turn you away."

She sighed and nodded as Boromir kissed her forehead.

"My lady", Freida said as she shook Solatiri awake. "My lady, we're leaving now."

Solatiri opened her eyes only to close them as the sun shined in her eyes.

"Where's Eothain and Hallath?" she asked.

"Waiting by the horses", Freida answered.

Hallath looked at his sister as they continued their journey to Helm's Deep. Solatiri looked had a distant look in her eye and was barely speaking to Eothain and Freida. Much less to him. She kept looking ahead to Hama and touching her stomach.

"Solatiri", he spoke up.

"Yes?"

"What's troubling you?"

"Hallath…can you tell me about our mother?" Solatiri asked. "I want to know."

"Mother?" Hallath asked. "Can you ask Father?"

"No", she said shaking her head. "I don't want to talk to him."

"I don't know much about Mother. Her name was Eithrin."

"Can you tell me what she was like?"

"Mother was very kind", Hallath started. "She loved me as much as Father does. She took care of me when Father couldn't."

Solatiri looked at Hama feeling nothing but jealousy and hatred. She missed out on having a loving family all because her father found her useless and thought she would amount to nothing. Everyone in the crowed watched as Hama and Gamling rode ahead the group.

Hama tried to regain control of his horse as it suddenly became spooked.

"What is it?" Gamling asked. "Hama?"

"I'm not sure", Hama answered.

From the rock above them, an Orc riding a Warg came racing down, attacking them. Gamling yelled as the Warg hit Hama's horse, knocking him to the ground. Hama sat up to see what was happening. The Orc smiled as he turned the Warg toward him. Hama screamed as the it bared it's sharp teeth and brought them down over his head, biting down on his neck.

Solatiri gasped as everyone heard the scream echo over the hill.

"Father?" Hallath said.

"Hallath, stay here with the children", Solatiri said.

She started riding ahead of the group as well as Aragorn and Legolas who ran to see what was happening. Legolas fired an arrow at the Warg, killing it. Solatiri looked around for Gamling and Hama. Gamling was on his horse with his sword drawn, completely unharmed. Where was Hama?

Solatiri felt as if the breath had been punched from her body. Hama laid across the way unmoving. His neck was broken and the teeth marks from the Warg completely circled it like a bloody necklace. Hama was dead…her father was dead.
