Ive always thought that her doom was a really sad one. And her parting to Lorien has always been a confusion for me. If she was so sad for the death of Aragorn, why didn't she stay with Eldarion? Her son was the closest she could get to Aragorn, and to his love and his life, not a hill on the deserted land of her grandmother and mother, where she met her dead husband.
If I had been her, I would have stayed in Minas Tirith and I would never go to Lorien... to see such a decadent realm after knowing it in it's full beauty would make me grieve a lot more...
