Summary: "Looking back / Over my shoulder" (Mike + The Mechanics)

Éowyn has come a long way ever since she set out from Rohan disguised as one of King Théoden’s Riders. She was just a girl back then, seeking glory and renown in battle – and mistaking admiration for love when it came to the Lord Aragorn.
She’s a woman now, and she’s not looking for glory anymore. Faramir has taught her to love the fair land of Ithilien and everything that grows there; they spend their evenings in the garden, talking about the tiny life that is growing inside of her.
Their child will never know the dust of the battlefields.
