Aragorn smiles at the question...
He's already living the "happily ever after", in so many ways that he sometimes thinks the life he's leading now must be charmed, or part of a dream from which he doesn't want to wake up.
Still, there is one thing that would complete this charmed life..He leans back against the tree trunk and closes his eyes.
Soon voices break the silence, a man's and a child's as they come out of the woods and join Aragorn at the campsite he's made by the fire.
The child throws himself at him and flops down by his side, chatting excitedly of tracks in the woods, of an owl sleeping on a branch and of how dad has caught six huge trouts, asking if tomorrow Aragorn will show him how to read and follow the tracks and if he thinks there will be wolves in the woods at night.
And all the while the man smiles, watching Aragorn and the child.
