Lie Down in the Darkness, Rise up from the Ash

...I didn't think about what Frodo and Sam's action with the boats would mean for Boromir. What a difference! It creates echoes with the past (remarked upon by the principals), resonates eerily with the canonical future (the passing of Denethor) and contributes to the general foreboding that hangs over the narrative. It seems like this is just not "the way things are supposed to be" with the dead in Middle-earth...
