Warnings: use of "ye old English language" as Emma calls it, and hopefully correctly
Characters: Olwe, Finwe, Ulmo, mention of Osse
Pairings:
Creator’s Notes (optional): Er...I disclaim the short bit of song lyrics directly after the line of asterisks; it's from one of my favourite recent Disney movies and ought to be recognizable (especially given the title of this story, which I also disclaim). But it's just so Olwe, don't you think?

Rating: PG

Creator’s Notes (optional): Ninglorien's name means "yellow flag" or "yellow lily/iris" - ninglor is the name for the "gladden" of the Gladden Fields. I have chosen to take the "iris" name to fit with the Language of Flowers card. Her relationship with Miriel is symbolic of the relationship she wishes to have with Nimrodel.
Summary: After the Fellowship comes to Lothlorien, we are told Legolas is away with the Elves much of the time, separated from the rest of the Fellowship. This is one of the first of those times, if not the very first.

B2MeM Challenge:B2MEM Challenge B2MEM 2012 I18 Adunaic – Izrê (beloved), Economy – Market Day, Emotions – Grief, Of the Sea – Corals

But the other Ainur looked upon this habitation set within the vast spaces of the World, which the Elves call Arda, the Earth; and their hearts rejoiced in light, and their eyes beholding many colours were filled with gladness; but because of the roaring of the sea they felt a great unquiet. And they observed the winds and the air, and the matters of which Arda was made, of iron and stone and silver and gold and many substances: but of all these water they most greatly praised. And it is said by the Eldar that in water there lives yet the echo of the Music of the Ainur more than in any substance else that is in this Earth; and many of the Children of Ilúvatar hearken still unsated to the voices of the Sea, and yet know not for what they listen.
