A Land of their Own |
27. Rohan: reaching beyond self for dreams Eorl the Young |
As he followed their guide beyond the Mering Stream, Eorl surveyed the grasslands granted to him and those of his people who had followed him south from the valley of the Great River. Cirion of Mundberg had given these unto them in thanks for their aid against the enemies of the Stonelands? How perfect for his people and their needs! And Felaróf nodded his own head in recognition that this was indeed what the two of them had dreamed of for so very long—a land of their own where each might reign for what remained of his life…. A true drabble for Elena Tiriel for her birthday. Please pardon its tardiness. |
