| The characters are the property of the Tolkien Estate Death of Hope I always knew this dreaded day would come. Yet nothing could prepare me for it. I pleaded with him to stay, much to my shame. Would it have been easier if I had watched him growing ever weaker, losing everything that made him the man he was? I know not. He departed with such courage, full of hope, my Estel to his last breath. Is this the true Gift of Men that more than memories await? Even in death his glory was not diminished. I feel half of my spirit departed with him. I am left but a walking shadow. |
