Eowyn is a daughter of horse lords, a shield-maiden of the mighty nation of Rohan. As the darkness of Mordor continues to overtake the lands of Middle-earth, she finds herself losing hope for herself and her country. She decides to stowaway as an undercover soldier as her uncle, the king, and his army goes to aid the armies of Gondor. Though there may not be much hope for winning this war, she aspires to die nobly while fighting for her land and world - except she does not find death, but finds a surprising alternative ending with something else entirely: hope.

The end of "The Return of the King" as told from Eowyn's perspective.

LOTR - Female Reader x Faramir Fanfiction by TheMoodyPossum
25 parts Ongoing Mature
You're a Ranger of Ithilien and Faramir's Girlfriend. You were dating before he became a captain, and since, publicly, he don't treat you any different from anybody else, so it's cool. Anyway, you are sent with Boromir to be part of the Fellowship of the Ring. I got this idea after seeing the Expanded edition, (I had only seen the Theatrical, so it explained sooo much.) and then seeing the lack of Faramir fanfiction. Note: I'm relying heavily on the wiki for spelling, if you catch a typo, please let me know and I'll correct it. I will be drawing influence from the Expanded Edition, the books, and Lord of the Rings Online (MMORPG) Mature rating for: Violence, and Some Sexual Content. (It's not smut but the warning remains.)

Sword Maiden of Rohan | Of Every Race Saga Book IV by CelticWarriorQueen17
29 parts Complete
The story is about a survivor of an orc invasion, Déorhild, who comes to Eodoras to seek help from King Théoden. However, due to her strange story and backround, no one really trusts her except for Éowyn and Éomer. Also, no one is really close to her because of her forbidding personality which is a result of her childhood. But unknown to everyone else, (except those that have their suspicions) Déorhild is not who she seems. Trying to keep her true identity hidden from prying eyes, Déorhild is very secretive. Éowyn still holds herself somewhat distant, but Éomer seeks a closer relationship with Déorhild, who for awhile, turns him coldly down. When Déorhild finally realizes that she loves Éomer, it is too late, for Éomer has along with the Rohirrim been exiled from Eodoras. So Déorhild embarks on a mission, to not only revenge those of her village who died, but to find Éomer and tell him of her true feelings for him before it's too late and he's dead. Yet both Éomer and Déorhild are caught up in a event which is greater than any of them have imagined, a war in which lies the fate of all Middle Earth. Can Déorhild find Éomer and tell him who she really is and what her feelings are for him before it's too late, or will they both perish in the War of the Ring? --First fanfiction and first story on Wattpad-- HIGHLY UNEDITED Beautiful cover is by @TheRegularRavenclaw CHECK OUT HER GRAPHICS!
