Ah now - the Gondorians are much too civilised to sacrifice people like that!
I think that next year, in Ithilien, Éowyn will light the bonfire - or at least share the role with Faramir - and it will be lit from 'the hearth fire' and be used to re-light the hearth fire too - as Arwen points out, as the Princess of Ithilien she can change things if she wants - she doesn't have to conform to what the Gondorians expect...
I'm glad that you liked the kiss with Anarion - I like to tie up my loose ends, so to speak.
And as for who got Midsummer kisses from Legolas - I wouldn't be surprised if they included Éowyn! Although in the next chapter - written and about to be beta'ed - Éowyn is having 'thoughts' about Elves in general and possibly not coming to the same conclusions that 'your' Éowyn would come to!
