Warning: Just Fucking Depressing

They say his heart froze, when his Lady died, though they dare not say it loudly. The Steward, never a patient man, has grown cold and harsh in his grief, and even his sons cannot thaw him.

They said he did not cry, even at her deathbed, though he sat for three days without food or sleep. His tears were unshed, they say, and so they turned inward, and froze around his heart.

Months turned into years turned into decades, as his heart froze in his chest. In the end, even the heat of the pyre could not warm him.

True. But it makes the guy all the more huggable. *sigh* In short, very good!

BTW, I'm glad you're still into Denethor. *wink*

I'm glad you liked it. I wasn't sure if it was going to be unreadably depressing or overdone or just plain mawkish.
