Description


Mightier than Estë is Nienna, sister of the Fëanturi; she dwells alone. She is acquainted with grief, and mourns
for every wound that Arda has suffered in the marring of Melkor. So great was her sorrow, as the Music unfolded, that
her song turned to lamentation long before its end, and the sound of mourning was woven into the themes of the World
before it began. But she does not weep for herself; and those who hearken to her learn pity, and endurance in hope. Her
halls are west of West, upon the borders of the world; and she comes seldom to the city of Valimar where all is glad.
She goes rather to the halls of Mandos, which are near to her own; and all those who wait in Mandos cry to her, for she
brings strength to the spirit and turns sorrow to wisdom. The windows of her house look outward from the walls of the
world. The Silmarillion

Yesterday I was searching through some long forgotten folders and I found o bunch of forgotten and half finished pics and this is one of them; more are coming
I was inspired by this magnificent blue background it just looks like the halls of Nienna, at least as I see them... dark and mystical...

Hope you like it

Well please don't make him look like the grim reaper!

All 14 of the Valar took on beautiful forms
Manwe
Varda
Ulmo
Aule
Yavanna
Namo/Mandos
Nienna
Orome
Tulkas
Irmo/Lorien
Este
Vaire
Vana
Nessa

And Namo was one of the 8 Aratar (High Vala) who were more powerful
and beautiful than the others.

Ahhh. Most people don't know a lot of facts about the Valar.
Also here's something to consider: all of them (Namo included) are good singers.
Remember the Music of the Ainur.

Also the entire reason that the Vala entered Ea and came to Arda in the first place
was out of love...love for the coming First and Secondborn.
