Title: Deliverance
Word count: 100
Adult content/slash: no
Notes: For the Honesty challenge and the apparent Dying!Boromir theme going on…
His body riddled with arrows, Boromir waited for death. He had not intended to end his life this way: suffused in guilt for betraying bonds of fellowship, atoning the shame by protecting kin of the one he deceived — and failing.
Perhaps if he, in Lorien, had spoken to Aragorn about that which piercing starry eyes had revealed in his heart—a loathsome lure becoming more difficult to resist; a fear of losing himself to desire—this fate might have been avoided.
Deliverance came too late, but in the form of the warrior he would have called king, he found forgiveness.

Oh, wow. Lovely!
in the form of the warrior he would have called king, he found forgiveness. That is just perfect – Boromir needed to find that forgiveness.
I still can’t watch that scene without tears in my eyes.
