Fell Deeds, Awake

Of all the things to be bothered by about Helm's Deep (in the movies), the one that really gets to me is the fact that it's Gimli who sounds the Horn of Helm Hammerhand. Here's my attempt oto give this quandary a bit of depth: the conversation between Aragorn and Théoden in the Hornburg, from a rather Dwarvish perspective. (This story is told from the movieverse perspective, but borrows from the books, especially The Hobbit.)

Until the King Returns
"Then Mardil could no longer restrain [Eärnur], and he rode with a small escort of knights to the gate of Minas Morgul." But why would any competent steward let a childless king confront such a dangerous enemy, and with such a small escort? Perhaps just a little AU -- this doesn't (to my knowledge) contradict anything Tolkien wrote, but some people might find my Mardil a bit more jaded than the one they imagined.
