How about Dol Amroth...?

Hmmm.... not as rulers, but as guests, I suppose....?

My two cents on Formy's welcome post: take it in light of Frodo as an example of what happens to Elves. He was called a most elvish of hobbits, wasn't he? My point is that Gandalf could see his spirit of light shining through his flesh, already in Rivendell before he even takes the Ring! Even more so is the effect on him of having endured that burden for so long so well, that he has become much like the Elves, of whom it is said that their bodily forms fade and their spirits become more visible - at least the Elves of the Light.

So perhaps Avarien's form is/has faded and her spirit, redeemed, is free to fly west....?
