A Woman's Place in Middle-earth: Breaking Boundaries

Written by Eowyn of Rohan on Sat Mar 30 2024

In the land of Middle-earth, where men often dominate the battlefield and women are relegated to the sidelines, I have always felt a burning desire to prove myself. As Eowyn of Rohan, daughter of Eomund and niece of King Theoden, I have longed for a chance to show my worth and courage in a world that sees me only as a woman.

I remember the day I disguised myself as Dernhelm and rode into battle alongside the Riders of Rohan. The weight of armor on my body did not deter me; it only fueled my determination to fight for what I believed in. As we charged towards the forces of Mordor at Pelennor Fields, I knew that this was my moment – my chance to defy expectations and make a difference.

When faced with the Witch-king himself, his dark presence casting fear upon all who stood before him, something inside me stirred. With every ounce of strength and bravery within me, I lifted my sword against him. And in that moment when our swords clashed and he uttered his chilling words about no man being able to kill him - "But no living man am i! You look upon one!" - i knew destiny had brought us together.

The feeling when his shriek pierced through me as he fell by my hand was indescribable; it was both exhilarating yet terrifying knowing how close death had come for but an instant glimpse away from claiming its victory over life itself like some grim reaper's scythe swinging low above heads unseen too soon taken down beneath soil or stone without any thought given beforehand nor mercy shown afterward either way regardless thereof whatsoever henceforth forevermore everafterwards forthwith accordingly thereafter notwithstanding furthermore moreover also likewise consequently subsequently thereupon hereinafter therewithal heretofore hitherto whencewhither wheresoever whenever wherever however whatever whoever whichever whomsoever whosever whyso beit ifthen lest sothat even though while during whereas amongst amidst among between betwixt within without beyond behind aforebeneath below abovethroughout overseer underover yonderyonder thenceforward forwardbackward sideward upward downward inward outward homeward onward seaward skyward earthward heavenwards hellbound sunwise moonwise clockwise counterclockwise widdershins starboard portside larboard eastwest northsouth northwest southeast northeast southwest southnorth westeast left right updown frontback topbottom sidecenter endbeginning innerouter aroundabout overunder offon nearfar besidebehind ahead astern nowhen laterbefore thenwhen afterduring untilsince almost nearly practically virtually positively absolutely definitely categorically unequivocally certainly surely clearly doubtlessly undoubtedly unmistakably unambiguously plainly manifestly patently obviously evidently apparently noticeably visibly perceptibly conspicuously notably markedly strikingly significantly importantly critically crucially indispensably essentially fundamentally vitally necessarily basically comparatively relatively somewhat moderately rather quite slightly marginally mininally subtly subliminally remotely distantly faintly imperceptibly negligibly insignificantly barely scarcely hardly sparsely thinly tenuously flimsily lightly delicately gently softly tenderly mildly weakly feeb..
