Sunset Sky

Summary:

It’s almost dusk, and Faramir goes to the Court of the Fountain to look at the East.

Notes:

Tolkientober 2026, prompt #8: EAST.

I’m not a writer, English is not my first language and the fic is also unbetaed, so... Sorry! :D

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

It was almost dusk, the sky was starting to show all the reds, oranges and yellows of the sunset, even as looked from the Court of the Fountain, that faced East.

Faramir was admiring its serene beauty, when he was joined by Èowyn. She stood beside him, a silent, welcomed presence. He put an arm on her back, and she moved a little closer.

They stayed like that, hugging, admiring the sky slowly turning to lovely shades of purple.

They didn’t need to talk to know that they were thinking the same thing: looking East had never felt so peaceful.

Notes:

I wanted to talk about someone looking at where Mordor was, and thinking about how very different it was after the destruction of the Ring, but I ended up talking about the sky and my favourite LotR couple. Well, 100 words are not so many, I can’t say anything I want!

Thanks for reading! ^^
