...IN THE SMALL METROPOLIS PARK near the DAILY PLANET building was an interval of time well exploited by his superior intellect. The alien being, human-shaped by cosmic forces of convergent evolution, had reasons of his own for refreshing himself, during his isolation surrounded by many, by maintaining all his activities while enjoying an intellectual game of a vast imposture, one stretching far beyond the playful trope of a false identity. As for this episode of the Show, we featured the poetry of Dylan Thomas and Samuel Taylor Coleridge; we attended and presented the recent SxSW Interview with Sacred Scribe Ivan Stang and SubGenius Documentary-maker Sandy Boone, via a virtual re-creation, in which it seems we lost the entirety of our easily-bored listening audience, and heard J.R.R. Tolkien read eloquently from his own works on the death of Boromir, the Lament for Boromir.
The older brother of Faramir, Boromir was known in Gondor for his greatness as a warrior and champion, having already achieved knightly merit in Gondor prior to the Council of Elrond. The eldest son of Denethor II, who was Steward of Gondor during the War of the Ring, and his wife Finduilas, he was admired even by the equestrian people of Rohan, particularly Éomer.
Boromir was born in the year TA 2978, the eldest child of Denethor II (the penultimate Steward of Gondor) and his wife Finduilas, and would have taken over as Steward after Denethor's death, had he lived. When Boromir was only ten years old, his mother died. Consequently, his father became a grim person and visibly displayed a preference for Boromir over his younger brother. Despite this fact, Boromir was most fraternally close to Faramir, and typically looked after his interests. He devoted himself to leading his people and fought in the battle for the eastern part of Osgiliath. He, his brother, and two others were the only survivors of the unit that held the bridge until its destruction; they had to swim the river Anduin to preserve their lives. Although KrOB and Puzzling Evidence were present at the Show, once again neither would deign to speak.
