I Will Try to Find My Place (Eomer/Arwen)

Finished! YAY! I'm not really sure which one I like best: this one or my previous one to "Tears of an Angel." I mean, I started them at the same time, but the former one was finished first. Oh well, this one is finally finished. :) Alright, again, major AU-ness!! If you don't like that sort of thing, then do not watch this video. Honestly, don't be a masochist. :P

Plot:
In the great libraries of Minas Tirith, Gandalf is trying to find what he can on the One Ring. However, while searching through the old texts, he comes across an old story; it's a story of an Elven princess and a Rohirric rider. It is (as heard in the audio clip) year 3434 of the Second Age; Arwen, an Elvish princess of Rivendell, is searching for her fiancée's war party. She finds them slaughtered along a riverbank, bodies strewn about. Eomer, her fiancée's cousin and Arwen's old friend, arrives mere seconds after her; he too was searching for the war party. Together they search amidst the bodies for that of her fiancée; she finds him first. They both realize that he is barely alive and bring him back to Edoras; unfortunately, he dies within a day, devastating Arwen. At the funeral, Eomer cannot stand to see his best friend so upset and so takes her hand, reassuring her that she'll be alright. For years, Eomer has harbored a secret love for Arwen, but did not wish to stand between her and his cousin; in the time that follows, he and Arwen grow very close. He makes his affection for her clear, while she tells him that she loves him as well. However, a guilt and doubt begins to overwhelm her: can she so wantonly and easily forget her former love? In her confusion and despair, she tells Eomer that she cant be with him, she cant so quickly forget; Arwen seeks solace and guidance at her former loves tomb. While there, she receives a subliminal/mental message from her father in Rivendell, telling her to return home. She knows that she must see her father; she needs his guidance and advice. Eomer begs her not to go; he doesn't have a good feeling about this and the road is long, with many chances for her to be exposed, thus put in danger. She does not heed him, persistently saying that she needs to go to her father. Resigning himself to the fact that she will not stay, Eomer lets her go, praying that she'll be alright. Well, needless to say, a large group of Nazgul catch up with her, driving her to a river, cornering her against a wall of rock. Arwen summons the power of the river to help her, not thinking of how much power it will actually have; she gets caught up within the great force, dragged under the water. At first she struggles with the wild and whirling waves, but eventually gives up, letting herself sink beneath the waves. Meanwhile, back in Edoras, Eomer has been worrying frantically about the woman he loves, and resolves to set out after her. He follows her horse's tracks, leading him to the river. There, Arwens body washes up on shore; Eomer sobs, overwhelmed at losing the woman he loved for so long. The last shot of the person walking through the woods is the spirit of Arwen; she has cursed herself to walk among the fading trees, unable to decide to whose heart she was most loyal.
End Plotline.

And I'm back with another tragic ending. :P Lol. Yep, I decided to go back to my usual formula where I basically kill everyone. I'm awful; if these characters could come into our world, they'd throttle me happily. Haha. Okay, well, just let me know what you think. :D

Okay. First of all, I am a huge Breaking Benjamin fan. And while I love the original Diary of Jane, the acoustic version is my favorite song by them of all time. So that already gave this vid an A+ in my eyes. But then you go and add Eomer (my favorite LOTR character) and Arwen (she kicks butt)! This is A+++++++. Not to mention the way you put it together was absolutely amazing. Sorry, I'm gushing. Good freaking job!

So Awesome!! Thanks for uploading this!!

[honeyphan2]

Yes, so tragic- but very well done! I love the coloring you used - the shades of gray and blush of rose - very fitting for tone. Editing was superb. 5*****! :)

Thank you again for entering my contest- the results will be up some time during the first two weeks of May...please leave ALL your videos as a video response (don't post elsewhere) until then. If you post them as a video response elsewhere, they will disappear from my contest and I can no longer see them to judge them - thanks! :)

*is trying to hold back her tears* This video was just simply WONDERFUL!!! I just love the story that you came up with for it and how you were able to keep it like it was a story. It was a really nice touch to have Gandalfe every now and then so absorbed in the story. Even though it was such a sad ending I loved every second of this video!!!

You are an AMAZING editor!!!

[harrypfanmcc]

Lol, thank you so much! I'm glad that you liked it! :)
