Slightly! Think that your thread,
thewichtking, has been hijacked. Welcome to the Downs, by the way.
Anyway, in the Extended version of RotK, we get a brief moment in the Houses of Healing - far too little for me. Merry is no where to be seen, and so why he's not in the vanguard would be a mystery. For example, who would he speak with regarding 'those that have gone east to meet their Doom?' The healers? The Herbmaster? Ioreth?
Eowyn gets a moment with Faramir, and Merry would be a third wheel in that scene.
And so Merry is sent east.
