(Anonymous) 2013-08-28 07:03 am (UTC)(link)Then I started writing (ok, mostly making up)an essay about Shieldmaidens of Rohan to help out a friend and it got me thinking about Eowyn.
Remember how she says she fears the cage? Well, Edoras had been turned into her gilded cage - her role as Shieldmaiden extremely limited, a prisoner in her own house, no way to stop or counteract Grima's influence... She wants to *do* something for her family and her kingdom, but *can't*. It's an extremely frustration situation.
Fast forward to her falling in love with Faramir: as things stand in that moment, if Aragorn survives the battle, Faramir is going to be is Steward and if Aragorn doesn't return, he'll have to take over running Gondor. By now Eowyn has learned something very important about herself: forced inactivity is Very Bad for her.
As a foreigner and a woman, it's doubtful she would be able to influence the Gondorian political life - so she turns to something else that requires persistance and energy, i.e. healing.
Of course, when they go off to colonize Ithilien, she's probably going to need both of her skills.
