King of Doriath, the Hidden King
for fair and noble as he had been, now he appeared as it were a lord of
the Maiar, his hair as grey silver, tallest of all the Children of

High Elves of the Second ClanThe Noldor are the most skilled of all peoples in lore, warfare and crafts.
In Valinor great became their knowledge and their skill; yet even
greater was their thirst for more knowledge, and in many things they
soon surpassed their teachers. They were changeful in speech, for they
had great love of words, and sought ever to find names more fit for all
things they knew or imagined.

Minas TirithPippin gazed in growing wonder at the great stone city… greater and stronger than Isengard, and far more beautiful. In every street they passed some great house or court over whose doors and arched gates were carved many fair letters of strange and ancient shapes: names… of great men and kindreds that had once dwelt there

The Middle-Earth aesthetic | Mirkwood |
Silvan Elves, Wood ElvesBeneath the roof of sleeping leaves
the dreams of trees unfold;
When woodland halls are green and cool,
and wind is in the West.
When summer warms the hanging fruit
and burns the berry brown;
When straw is gold, and ear is white,
and harvest comes to town;
When honey spills, and apple swells,
though wind be in the West,
I’ll linger here beneath the Sun,
because my land is best!

And it is told of Maglor that he could not
endure the pain with which the Silmaril tormented him; and he cast it at last
into the Sea, and thereafter he wandered ever upon the shores, singing in pain
and regret beside the waves. For Maglor was mighty among the singers of old..J.R.R.Tolkien, The Silmarillion
