Title : A minstrel reminiscing
Author : Himring
Fandom : Lord of the Rings
Rating : PG
Characters : Gleowine
Disclaimer : Gleowine is Tolkien's character, although he tells us nothing of his earlier life.
Spoilers : none (this is set well before the events of LOTR)
Summary : Gleowine takes a break and a stroll.

The afternoon was drawing to a close. The feasting and the singing had been going on since shortly after midday and were set to continue until midnight. Once Gleowine had had the stamina to carouse with the best of them. Now he was older and needed to husband his strength a little. He passed the harp to his apprentice and took a stroll around the outbuildings and, because the temperatures were mild and the air inviting, walked on, out to the mound of King Thengel. There he stood remembering the king of his childhood and the queen he had admired.

A/N: This also came out of the SWG instadrabbling session, although now slightly revised. The prompts were: afternoon, old, midnight, temperature.
