Summary: A Bree pasture

Aragorn hurried toward Bree, but at the edge of a pasture, he paused. A mist hovered over daisies blooming thick upon it, and his imagination was caught by a capricious intersect of sun, fog and flower. How like the ephemeral mists of niphredil blooming on Cerin Amroth was that lowly Bree-land field! His mind chased after his heart and he saw then his hand tucking a fair blossom of Lúthien in the hair of his beloved Evenstar, on a midsummer evening so long ago.

He breathed in a long, slow breath, and in his sigh dwelt loneliness and hope intermingled.

Thank you! That's how I see him as well... never completely down and out because of that hope within him, but subject to loneliness and all those other frustrations that came along with the life he had to lead.
