illwyndI wanted to have some longer stories ready for this day, but I don't, so here's the first of a smaller handful... to be posted in between my mourning, weeping, wailing, hair-tearing etc on this day of angst and memory. Yeah, I'm weird.

Boromir knew guilt.
It had gnawed at his stomach, when he was young; he could remember his mother, but Faramir could not. It clutched at his heart whenever Faramir was viewed with a critical eye by their father. Did he deserve to be the favored son? He had pushed it down violently after the loss of Osgiliath- and many of his men. Could he have done anything differently?
It froze his being as he walked slowly back to his companions, and he knew it was well-deserved.
His guilt poured out onto the ground and fled with his final breath.
Absolution.

--is a wonderful and horrifying ending (horrifying because, of course, of what happened).
