Gandalf? Boromir (kind of) looked to Aragorn for leadership, and Aragorn looked to Gandalf for leadership?

Celebriel Esgaledhel · 01-13-2005, 06:14 PM

Elrond? Boromir was, in a way, under the command of Aragorn, and when Aragorn was growing up, he was under the care of Elrond.

Arwen? Boromir died in Aragorn's company and Aragorn died in Arwen's?

Evisse the Blue · 01-14-2005, 12:37 PM

Yes, that's exactly what I had in mind.

Your thread.
