2. Notes
Most quotes and a fair few lines of the description come from "The Steward and the King," The Return of the King. Thanks to Kaylee Arafinwiel for reading over this and helping me with the ending.
This was written in response to the BMEM Day #5 challenge: "But when Aragorn arose all that beheld him gazed in silence, for it seemed to them that he was revealed to them now for the first time. Tall he seemed and yet in the flower of manhood; and wisdom sat upon his brow, and strength and healing were in his hands, and a light was about him."
