_____________________
When the fearsome company mounts the last ridge, the sun has gathered strength enough to glint dully on broad Anduin. Aragorn's eyes sweep down the slope, his gaze captured by the gleam of water. Here is Gondor, too, green lands as dear to Steward and to King as the White City. Here as there the Great River flows, bearing what it is given to the western sea. His breath catches and he bows for a moment into Roheryn's neck.
This is the river of the cataract. As Tol Brandir from Pelargir, Aragorn’s life was sundered by the roar of Rauros.
