As Faramir left the room, he was confused. The man he had just seen was not the Elessar he had left. Before, he had been wise, rational and understanding. Now he seemed rash, acting on impulse, with no principles, or by the look of things common sense!
Deollyn could fight well enough. He was younger than the aging king, and had chosen his weapon carefully. With Elessar injured, it was more than probable that Deollyn would win. Where would that leave Elessar? So many questions, needed so many answers, that it was a short time before Faramir remembered the problems at Helm's Deep. In any case, he was now too proud to ask Elessar for assistance. He had more authority than he used, and was now prepared to do so.
As much as the king seemed arrogant and biased in the courtroom, Faramir would not allow him to be injured in the duel that afternoon. Not really knowing Deollyn worked to his disadvantage, but he was sure with a little persuasion he would be easy on Elessar, and get off with a mild penalty. Yes, he would visit Deollyn later, and then visit Elessar, for the changed man he may be, there were still things he wished to discuss with him. First, however, he would visit Eowyn, see if she was awake. Talk to her, and try and clear his head. And again, Faramir appreciated Eowyn's straight thinking and practicallity. Not many nobles could turn to their wives when in need of advise.
