Misty, thank you for being a light for so many ~ and I'm also pretty sure that won't stop just because it's no longer shining from a stage 🎉

"Mabinty", we lost you *years and yeaaaars* too soon. You were such a light too, despite all the darkness along your path 🙏🏻🫶🏻

Latest piece, just a little something for these goddesses (interrupting your regularly scheduled-ish, lol, Tolkien art 😅).

Anyone else think about this parallel sometimes? Just me? 😭😭😭😭

In his last moments before leaving the Circles of the World, Boromir sought redemption for falling to temptation...I think that would matter to Mandos. Rían made the ultimate sacrifice for her people...

I am in no way claiming authorial intent here, just something I see. The Akallabêth is a highly anti-imperialist, highly anti-materialist story. More on my Tumblr:

⛵🌊 Númetober Day 28: Your Númenor 👏🏻Hot 👏🏻Take 👏🏻 🌊⛵

"...and [Sauron] bade men think that in the world, in the east and even in the west, there lay yet many seas and many lands for their winning, wherein was wealth uncounted." ~ "The Fall of Númenor" p 177 (quote adjusted for the graphic)

And Valandil wouldn't see more battle either....😭😭😭😭. He stood up to (the absolute worst) Kemen but ~ because he listened to Elendil ~ stayed his hand. Only to be slain by the one on whom he took pity.

I am very sorry for the sad. Brb gonna go crash out 🤧🤧🤧🤧🤧

And his betrothed Mairen was left behind to grieve and redirect her life from there (she's there in an almost "blink and you'll miss it" moment, but she *is* there). She embodies those left behind to do just that, pick themselves up and continue living after war takes those they love.

⛵🌊 Númetober Day 27: A Númebros moment: for Valandil and/or Ontamo ⛵🌊

"Seen enough battle for a week?"
"More like a whole lifetime."

That *would* be the battle he'd see for a lifetime, because...because...😭😭😭😭

Runner-up: Estrid giving Isildur the dagger, seemingly another deleted scene. Look at their faces...a final nail in the coffin for a "them"? But umm...we know it wasn't...💋💋💋...SO I am very curious what they could have discussed! WE WANTS IT, GIVES IT TO US MY LOVE.

⛵🌊 Númetober Day 26: TRoP Númenor scene you wish was in S1 or 2 🌊⛵

Apparently they filmed another scene with Eärien and Valandil. WE WANTS IT PRECIOUS. What do they discuss? How is Eärien battling her pull to protect her loved ones and the unfortunate voices in her ear?

🌊⛵ Númetober Day 25: A moment for Aldarion and Erendis ⛵🌊

an OS became...not an OS...New chapters added on to this one!

(That links to the first new ch, but toggle back for the first, if you'd like to read and haven't! But each chapter can stand independently, in terms of making sense, lol).

"The Faithful Theme accompanies Elendil as he searches among the marchers for any sign of his missing son, Isildur. Here, a solo French horn reminds us of his nobility and solemn reserve. As the score reaches the uplifting chords at the middle of his theme, ....

Just a note that I've jumped on Substack! @kb1moves or search "Elendili Dancer" 🧝🏻‍♀️💃🏼

Will still be posting occasional essays to my Wix blog (when I get ideas and have time to write them, lol), but also there. Also maybe quick Thoughts when I get them 💭🤔✍🏻

I also love how she often illustrates scenes in her AMAZING fics (Armenelos on A03...walk don't run!!).

Girl we'll always stan you, buy your prints, writing sprint with you, etc etc, it's an honor 🥰👏🏻
