Holiday reading

And here are some old stories with a Christmassy flavour, some poignant, some sad, some happy, all hopeful:

A Pale Light Lingering
The old year ends, and Faramir makes the journey from Minas Tirith to Ithilien.

Spirits of the House
The old year ends, Boromir has not returned, and Denethor contemplates mortality. A seasonal AU.

The Use of Memory
"Memory is not what the heart desires..." Faramir and Arwen.

Mothers' Night
Faramir and Éowyn in Ithilien, weaving new traditions from old.
