b2memB2MeM Prompt, Card and Number:Aspects of Aragorn, card 13, prompt O72 - Captain
Format:drabble
Genre:gen
Rating:gen
Warnings:none
Characters:Aragorn
Pairings:none
Creator’s Notes (optional):
Summary:The soldiers lot.
NO GREATER HOPE
How many times had he played the captain? Looking back, Aragorn felt the weight of his years. The uniforms and battle gear of Rohan and Gondor had changed over time, but not so the hearts of those who wore them. Captains changed allegience with the ebb and flow of power, but soldiers held to their own truth...loyalty to their comrade in arms.
Once again Aragorn would lead, humbled by the stoic ranks awaiting his command. Today, victory could not be grasped by their hands. They died that others may reach for life, as soldiers always had, and soldiers always would.
END
