7. owyn's Deam
[Night comes to Edoras. In a communal sleeping room, Gimli snores and Pippin tosses, looking worried.]
[Aragorn leaves, carrying his pipe. He pauses to stoke a fire near a sleeping owyn.]
[As owyn stirs, Aragorn covers her feet and shoulders with a blanket.]
owyn: "What time is it?"
Aragorn: "Not yet dawn."
[owyn grabbs his hand.]
owyn: "I dreamed I saw a great wave, climbing over green lands and above the hills. I stood upon the brink. It was uppterly dark in the abyss before my feet."
owyn: "A light shone behind me but I could not turn. I could only stand there, waiting."
Aragorn: "Night changes many thoguhts. Sleep, owyn."
Aragorn: "Sleep… while you can."
