Entwining Fates

Summary:

Arwen contemplates threads of fate while weaving threads into a banner.

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Work Text:

Fate assigned us different roads: You stride to your fate, whereas I sit here – weaving, watching – having already embraced mine when I chose you. Waiting for the day our paths will finally meet. Who can say which course is the harder?

To walk through peril and danger, death a constant foe, an end of hope for Middle-earth? Or to welcome death’s gift with open arms, as hope for Mankind?

I watch you from afar as your life thread unfolds, even as I weave these threads to a sign of hope. Linking the threads. Joining the roads. Uniting the sundered kindred.

Notes:

- Thanks to Dwimordene for suggesting a better version of my title
- Thanks to Rhapsody, for helping me with the new version of the first half.

 

04.03.04 B-drabble for Sphinx, who wanted to see a drabble with Aragorn and Arwen – well, Aragorn is there in spirit, at least.
