“I would name you Prince of Ithilien,” Aragorn replied. “And I would have you stand beside me when the crown is placed upon my brow. Not behind me. Beside me.”

“Your father is beyond grief now,” Aragorn said softly. “But Gondor still stands. And it needs its Steward.”

Aragorn son of Arathorn entered, cloaked in grey and green, but no longer the Ranger. His brow bore no crown, yet he walked like a king who had already chosen his burden. Behind him came Gandalf the White, who nodded to Faramir and quietly woke Éowyn with a whisper. El Senor de Los Anillos - El Retorno Del Rey Ed...

Outside, the sun finally broke through the ash clouds. The great bell of the Tower of Ecthelion began to toll—not in mourning, but in hope.

Faramir’s grey eyes, so like his brother Boromir’s but gentler, flickered open. “You are the Healer,” he whispered. “You walked the Paths of the Dead. You brought the ships. My father… Denethor…” His voice cracked. “I would name you Prince of Ithilien,” Aragorn replied

Beside him, Éowyn of Rohan, the White Lady of Ithilien, slept in a chair, her golden hair tangled with dried blood—not her own, but the Witch-king’s. Beside me

Gandalf stepped forward, his eyes kind but sharp. “Not nothing, Faramir. The Steward is not a throne. It is a duty. And Aragorn does not come to cast you aside. He comes to ask you a question.”
