Thank you, Nienna :) I need to adjust the summary - I cobble together poorly explained ones in the middle of the night, I suppose!
Something like..."sometime after the casting of Morgoth past the Doors of Night in the Void, but before the Breaking of the World, Namo and Vaire shed their physical forms, mingling as they observe the movements of Arien and Tilion through the airs into the west of the World and the Encircling Sea."
The different layers are supposed to be the various layers of atmosphere/air Tolkien named - the Void, then Vaiya, the Outer Sea which was to envelop all within the Walls of the World, then Ilmen, the region of stars where both Arien and Tilion, as well as Earendil sailed, and lastly Vista (two parts, Fanyamar and Aiwenore, Cloud-home and Bird-land, the breathable air.) I drew in clouds, but there were no birds. Donut said the birds were probably not so bothered about being that close to the outer wall of Arda and giving Namo and Vaire their privacy. :) Then the Outer Sea and all within mingled with the Ekkaia, the lower Sea which actually touches Arda.
The black sand beach at the Ekkaia stretches out to the Walls of the World behind which Arien is plunging. This is Nienna's demesne :)
