Bard & The Master Vs Aragorn & the House of Stewards

[Bywaters]

Good points.
In both cases the events of the stories allow for the rightful King to return without a major confrontation between the parties involved. In LotR it would have been a whole different story if Boromir had'nt died. In the film as he is dying, he tells Aragorn that he would follow him but this is'nt in the book. With his father dead he would be Steward. Would he give the throne to Aragorn? Then again, I dont think that Denethor would have killed himself if Boromir was still alive!
