"If Boromir is to come to life threatening harm, then you will take the blows meant for him without hesitance. 
If Boromir is to be attacked on his journey, then you shall die in his stead. Is this understood, Soldier?"


"......Yes, my lord."


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Boromir has been sent to The Last Homely House in the West (Rivendell) to represent Gondor in The Council of Elrond.
To discuss the fate of the One Ring. 
And even though Steward Denthor is unwilling to be parted from his 'Loyal Son', his need to possess the One Ring is greater. And yet, there is no one else Denthor trusts to successfully take up this task for him...

So to kill two birds with one stone, as the saying goes, Denthor orders a guard to accompany Boromir on his journey to Rivendell, to act as his 'human shield'.

But just who is this guard, who always keeps his helm low over his face?
His identity is one Boromir will be forced to discover for himself before the very end...

Boromir's Return -II- Book Four of the Tales of the Fourth Age Series by Silverhand19

*** Highest Ranked #1 in #Boromir 05/09/18 to 05/24/18 *** Sneak peak... It was his fault; he let himself be tricked by the ring, had tried to claim it for Gondor. No, for himself. Boromir shuddered as he ran, unsure of where he was running to; all he knew was that he no longer trusted himself to do what was right for the Fellowship. Off in the distance, Boromir heard familiar voices. "Hey, hey you! Over here!" It was Merry. "Run Pippin!" Boromir could just make out the young hobbits as they ran, a swarm of orcs that seemed to rival Boromir in height and strength chasing after them. He stood rooted in place; one heartbeat. Two heartbeats. Then, like an arrow, he was loosed and sped off after them.

Throne of Stone -II- Book Three of the Tales of the Fourth Age Series by Silverhand19

Aragorn clasped his hands behind his back and began to slowly pace around the table. "Four years I have been king, Faramir, and every step of the way I've had to fight for my kingdom. "I thought the fighting would be done after the War, that there would be such peace between the peoples of Middle-Earth to be worthy of writing about." Aragorn stopped before his friend, his face grave. "Something festers in the hearts of the people that cannot be fought with sword or bow." What people are saying: "Wow, this is awesome! Your writing style is beautiful and seems to fit so well into the original story. I also love how you introduced Boromir back into the story literally by using his name; you did it without the usual suspense that writers use to lead up to such an event at it was honestly a very enjoyable and refreshing way to reestablish his character. Can't wait for the next chapter!" - @KatJEnersen95 "Umm... dude, that's some fourth wall breaking. O.O" - @autumn_sunfire "Ai Valar! Why doth thee torture mine poor soul with demons of cliffhangers and angst whilst thee lift mine curiosity with thine angel of beautiful literature?" -@M00nblaze Ranked #136 in #Maleoc 05/22/18 Ranked #5 in #fourthage 7/4/18

Estateillio by AryaThea16

"I have many names, oh great dragon. I am Lithir, the many faced, though one face I have only, and I am Esta, the first, yet many came before me, I am the Fierce, the Swift, the Free, I am a wanderer, veiled, yet a princess at court, and I am mortal and immortal both." "And dwarf-friend, as well, for I smell their scent upon you. Tell me, many-named, have you come to slay me?", Smaug growled denunciatorily [...]. She gripped the handle of her dagger while spinning around with wide eyes, as if she was afraid and found herself face to face with Smaug and with a swift movement she aimed for the eyes to incapacitate him, for the blade was not long enough to go deep. And Smaug reared and bled and in his anger spit fire at his attacker and Estateillio quickly jumped aside and drew her bow. The arrow would have hit his other eye had he not moved so much, but when she extended her hand, his head was jerked around as the dagger [...] was yanked from injured flesh and returned to its master's hand.

Do We Let Them Stand Alone? by JenikaFoust

Galadriel has seen more war in five years than most would experience in a lifetime. She and her brother, Finrod, commanded the Great War's most elite death squad: the Loriens. Together they completed untold thousands of missions, destroying some of the Enemy's most valuable strongholds and weapons. In the last crucial battle of the War, Finrod was killed by Sauron, an Enemy lieutenant of reputed cruelty on and off the battlefield. Morgoth was killed in the same battle, and the Loriens were sent home. Galadriel and her commandos were expected to re-assimilate with the civilian population. Galadriel has struggled to adapt for months; but with her brother gone and so many of the Enemy soldiers, including Sauron, at large, how can she put down the weapons that have kept her safe for so long? Halbrand finally makes his way north to take refuge in the great city of Lindon, where a chance encounter with a half-elf lord puts him directly into the path of Galadriel. He's done fighting. It's time to atone for his misdeeds. If his identity is exposed, can he make the person who matters most to him understand? The two journey to the Southlands, where an orc father is pursuing a secret of his own. What is Adar hunting? That's a lot of very dramatic questions for a single description. All that cinematic fluff aside, I hope you'll take a look at my original fiction piece, as it has cost me many brain cells and many hours of sleep. #2 in haladriel #11 in ringsofpower trying to get in the top 100 of the lordoftherings tag but I keep topping out really close to 100...one day...

Across Kingdoms by NerdyXDisaster

"One does not simply walk into Mordor. Its black gates are guarded by more than just Orcs. There is evil there that does not sleep and the Great Eye is ever watchful. It is a barren wasteland, riddled with fire and ash and dust..." Boromir addresses the council in a quiet voice "The very air you breathe is a poisonous fume. Not with ten thousand men could you do this. It is folly." He ended in a state like manor As I sighed shaking my head at what he said "Have you heard nothing Lord Elrond has said ? The ring must be destroyed" Legolas said "It is true you cannot just walk into the gates of Mordor but you should not be so naive as to think you alone could destroy the ring" I said as Gimli looked towards me "And I suppose you think you're the one to do it ?" Gimli said cockily "And if we fail,what then ? What happens when Sauron takes back what is his ?" Boromir questioned looking towards Gimli as he leaps to his feet "I will be dead before I see the Ring in the hands of an Elf!" Gimli says looking towards me spitefully. "How dare you speak to me in such a manor dwarf!" I said rage in my voice as the council erupted into a storm of arguments. "Never trust an Elf!" Gimli said towards me as I reach for my arrow but a hand grabs my wrist and I feel warm breath on my ear "I wouldn't" Legolas' voice says against my skin as I look at him our faces inches apart. "Fine" I say through gritted teeth as Legolas lets go of my hand softly and stands by my side.
