Brotherhood Chapter Twenty Two
16 Sep 2009 07:37 pmI nearly put Chapter twenty three - that's already 1,500 words long and was the file I saw most recently!
But this chapter twenty two - in which Éowyn speaks of stolen children and Rumil considers the Gondorian Court en masse...
So - Previous chapters are Here.
Chapter Twenty-two.
Rating 15
5,300 words.
Beta'd, as usual, by S2C. ( Is under here. )
Manoah commented last time about the problem of people having more than one name.
I try to use the name that the POV character would use, with others using their own versions in speech - so it must get confusing, particularly with Aragorn...
Aragorn is his given name, chosen by his parents. Estel is the name given him as a child in hiding in Rivendell (Imladris in Sindarin). Strider is the name he used travelling as a ranger, and is how the hobbits think of him. He had at least one more name along the way, and took Elessar as his royal name. Usually, here he is Aragorn to all but Arwen and her brothers, or the formal King Elessar to his people.
Legolas is the son of King Thranduil of 'The Greenwood' (Eryn Lasgalen to the elves), which was known in the days of the Ring War as Mirkwood - so he gets referred to as a Prince of all three. But he moved, with other elves, to the blighted woods of Ithilien to help them heal - so is also Lord of Ithilien.
The twins are the sons of Elrond - so individually use the patronymic Elrondion - but when spoken of together they are the Elrondionath.
Oh, and, of course, Tindómë was previously known as Dawn Summers.
Any more you need just ask.
