"I am not the one to whom you should be obliged," Aragorn turns away, goes to sit back down. "Lady Éowyn spoke quite forcefully on your behalf."
"We ride for Ithilien tomorrow," Éowyn says, squeezing Faramir's hand. "I hope you have not forgotten the horsemanship I taught you, else it will be a long ride indeed." She had given a lot of thought to this. Politically, it made sense; if he was to have a probationary period, best for it to be far from his crew, and far from the sea. What seemed more important, though, was that Ithilien and Emyn Arnen were hers - her home, her realm. Given how off-balance she was in his presence, she would be glad for the reassurance of home.
