Arwen regarded the cloak her small son was wearing with dismay. The garment was finely woven, but well worn.”Why is Eldarion wearing this old cloak?” she asked his nanny.

“The King desired that he should wear it,”the woman replied.

Later that day Arwen said to Aragorn.”Our son has fairer cloaks by far. It surprises me that you chose such a shabby one for him to wear.”

“I spent many a happy childhood hour playing out of doors in that cloak,”said Aragorn. “I recall my mother weaving it for me.”

Tears pricked Arwen's eyes. She said no more.

That's a very heartwarming scene. It's nice to know that Aragorn kept some treasures from his childhood.

Nice. I like the idea of Eldarion wearing something that meant a lot to Aragorn...a family heirloom so to speak :)

Thank you. I guess they made cloaks that lasted in those days.

Very sweet--also shows that Gilraen must have been an excellent weaver, that the cloak has lasted to be passed down to Eldarion.

That is indeed a very sweet and charming drabble. I love the idea of Eldarion inheriting such a heirloom from Aragorn.

Aww, how sweet that Aragorn somehow managed to hang on to his childhood cloak!
