Summary
Princess Lothíriel is everything Éowyn is not: petite, refined, possessing an easy grace. But then Éowyn learns something shocking about her.
PREVIEW:
Éowyn had never felt at home as either sex. No matter how much she trained in arms, she was never one of the men. She was not even a man when she was Dernhelm, for everyone knew her secret, though they pretended they did not. And when she was a woman, she never felt like she was enough. It was remarked that she was beautiful, but her hands were ungentle. She was tall and queenly but cold, and she was well-spoken but lacked the zest that made people listen.When she met Faramir, he loved her in spite of the buts, and she forgot them for a while. But then a guest came to Ithilien: Lothíriel, Faramir’s cousin from Dol Amroth, and she opened up old wounds without even knowing.

Summary
It is Yuletide in Rohan, and Amrothos gives Éomer a gift. Lothíriel is appalled, but Éomer thinks on things he never considered before.
PREVIEW:
Éomer had known both Lothíriel and Amrothos for a year, and he was fast learning the Gondorian art of understatement. […]This new understanding served him well as he unwrapped his Yuletide gift, a surprise from Amrothos. Both Amrothos and Lothíriel looked on, and as the item came into view, Lothíriel raised her brows exactly half a finger’s breadth.
This meant, “no, no, you didn’t. Surely you didn’t.”
Amrothos’ lips turned up at the sides, a miniscule amount.
This meant, “oh, yes, yes, I did. Surely I did.”
