Elf-esteem

I'm just another Tolkien fan girl. All about the Elves.
I have a broad view of Tolkien canon beyond The Silmarillion, The Lord of the Rings, and The Hobbit. If it is something Tolkien wrote about Elves, I consider it a reference point. Some people do not agree with this scope of canon. *shrugs* Sorry, not sorry.
I admire Tolkien fan art, fanfic, and anything humorous or beautiful about Tolkien's world, especially involving the Elves. I like to write. If I have any purpose at all with this blog, it will be to help people see what Tolkien really wrote (and also to be silly).
I have a canon-hammer forged from the text of Tolkien's own writing; I named it Grond, which means 'very weighty and ponderous' in Sindarin. I smash things. ♥

  • Right side - King Thingol & Queen Melian hand in hand with Melian releasing her protective magic for the realm. 
  • When Thingol passed from Middle-earth, Melian followed, and her protective enchantments on Doriath faded. 
  • Top Row - Left: Cirdan, Teleri kinsman of Thingol, in the Havens
  • Middle: Luthien & Beren
  • Right: Luthien & Daeron the minstrel and lore-master of Thingol’s court
  • Daeron held unrequited love for Luthien
  • Below: Lady Galadriel & Lord Celeborn, who met in Doriath.  Celeborn is a kinsman of King Thingol, his grandnephew.
  • Central - Doomed Turin in shadow, foster-son of Thingol, in the dragonhelm with his beloved friend Beleg Strongbow
  • In flames - Shadow Thingol holding the Nauglamir and being slain by the Dwarves for it after they argued about who had the right to the necklace.
  • Below: the second kinslaying for the Silmaril with Celegorm, Caranthir, & Curufin crossing swords with King Dior, all four were slain. They are overshadowed by the Silmaril.
  • Right: Luthien wearing the Nauglamir with the Silmaril in her mortal passing.  After her death, it was passed to her son, Dior.  The Silmaril was saved from the Sack of Doriath by Dior’s daughter, Elwing, who fled to the Havens of Sirion with it.
