As I told you before, I loved Where The Stars Are Strange. It's one of my favourite stories of yours. The contrast between the bleakness and desperation of the desert, which in a way must have been a reflection of Aragorn's mood during his travels in Harad and Mordor, and the delightful, homely scene in the Haradrian village, which made him realize it was time to return home was just about perfect.
And in a way it does explain Aragorn's treatment of the prisoners after Sauron's fall. I've found this story very moving.
