If Eomer dies, who becomes king after Theoden? (Having Theoden live and Eomer die seems...counterinstinctual. Out with new, and all that). Surely they wouldn't put Faramir there in a gross act of kingdom-conflation, would they? He's a great guy, but he's not one of the Rohirrim, to say the least. Even though he does marry Eowyn. ("No longer do I desire to be a Queen...oh, wait.")<P>All right, I'll stop scaring myself. But I hope it's not Eomer - hopefully the death referred to was Saruman's, which seems to have become ROTK's hot potato. He has to die at some point or another, so, to quote Jane Austen, it does not much signify when. At least, it doesn't signify so much as Eomer's death would!
