Story Summary
This tale records the changes this entails - when Theodred eventually fights at the Pelennor and Boromir at the sieges of Lothlorien and Dol Guldur.
Warnings for: WIP, battle violence, angst, character death, sex/slash, adult themes.
Notes: The concepts of 'wind-curtains' and elvish 'silver-eyed far-speaking' were originally created by Implacida, and are used here because they seem so completely 'right' as expressions of elven culture; they deserve to be part of fanon.

Edit: And I'll apologise for the fact I'm having real issues with editing the line-breaks correctly. The software seems to have a mind of its own!

I make it quite clear in the story synopsis that this is a dark, adult story with some homoerotic themes - if you don't like slash - that's fine, then don't read it .
Also - the Elves aren't rapists - they are seductive, yes, but all enounters of a sexual nature are fully consensual on both sides. The men feel some initial guilt about giving in to their own bodily desires, but that's about lust, not rape.

How very kind of you to say so! ;) Thanks very much.
I'm pleased you enjoyed it. Yes, eventually when I find some more ideas, Boromir and the Elves will get back to Minas Tirith and a re-union with Theodred.
In the meanwhile - if you want to know more of The Last Peredhel, you could read my story:
