Part 5/8:
Boromir’s journey began in tragedy; he was only ten when he lost both of his parents to the forces of Mordor. His mother, Finduilas, died young, and his father's grief transformed him into a distant and harsher figure. This lack of parental support forced Boromir and his younger brother, Faramir, to depend on one another, creating a robust bond that persisted throughout their lives.
