Drabble: From the North

In an effort to shrink the overwhelming mass of stuff I have cluttering up my fics folder, here's a drabble I wrote a while back. Hope y'all like it! ^_^

From the North

Characters: Denethor, Thorongil
Notes: Thanks go to [livejournal.com profile] lilan14 for looking it over!

A stranger from the North. That he is a stranger all seem to forget, as they praise him so highly and heed his words well. It is those words—the strange tones in his speech—that make me wonder, for they are not the shining tones of our neighbors among whom he dwelt for a time. It is more like to the speech of a man I met long ago, who had traveled to the Golden Wood, and somehow gained admittance there.

But what Men still live so near the Elves, in these fading years? I might hazard a guess…
