Éowyn takes a deep breath, holds it. Her eyes are focused on the target, a fair distance away. She slowly releases her pent up breath, takes another. Nocks the arrow, narrows her eyes to aim, and draws, feeling the muscles in her arms stretch and move in concert, a joy she knows well from riding.

Exhaling, she lets go. The arrow flies true, hits the center of the target. Her first bull's eye.

Another deep breath, triumph welling within her.

She turns to Faramir. "Did you see?"

"I did," he replies, pressing a kiss to her temple. "I shall have to brush up on my skills to keep pace with you, my lady. We can practice together."

She laughs, delighted, and kisses his lips, twining her arms around his neck. "There are other skills we could practice together," she murmurs against his mouth.

He pulls her closer, arms wrapped about her waist and says, "As you wish."
