28. A Broken Heart
"We set out from Rivendell with seven companions. One we lost in Moria. Two were my kin. A dwarf there was also. And an elf. And two men. Aragorn, son of Arathorn and Boromir of Gondor."
My brother! They were the last to see Boromir alive! My heart breaks a-new, for once again I see my beloved brother's body in a boat as it floats past me in the river. Would that I had gone to Rivendell instead of him! Maybe if I had gone, he would still be alive, and father would have lost the son he didn't love.
