Why did Arwen do that?? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

I didn't say I saw it as a punishment! For Aragorn it seemed the right moment to go.(because he didn't want to " wither and fall from his high seat unmanned and witless" .) But if Arwen wasn't ready yet... couldn't he have taken a bit more consideration for his wife, who had given up everything for being together with him?

(btw, is this a kind of plea for suicide before one gets old and decrepit?!? [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img] )
