Aragorn's dark eyebrows shot up in utter surprise when he read the question. Hearing the work karma used in this world was the last thing he would have expected...
Who would have thought that these people, who knew nothing of Middle Earth, its people and its history, would know about the Karma-kundo, the Guardian of the Helm, the Regent appointed by the King of Gondor? Even in Middle Earth it was a title hidden in old, dusty chronicles.
But then it was most likely that they meant something altogether different by karma...
He went to the library in the living room and got out the thick book that Weps had told him he could use to find out about things he was not familiar with.
Karma
• noun (in Hinduism and Buddhism) the sum of a person’s actions in this and previous states of existence, viewed as affecting their future fate.
He sighed and closed the book. It hadn't been of help, except for confirming the fact that this karma had nothing to do with Gondor and the Karma-kundo, and he still had no idea what this karma was.
