Very nice indeed. Would Kāthaanī then, as his daughter, be Kāthaanī Karķbzīr? It goes nicely.

Since my character bio isn't quite complete (I'm waiting for Abārpānaru's history), I'll post here for the record that Kāthaanī's name (Kātha- all, anī- feminine name suffix) is roughly translatable to Sindarin "Adaneth" (one of the people, woman of the people); but she is more frequently called Cerveth (Sindarin "July") a pet name derived from the month of her birth.

"Abārpānaru", wow, what a mouthful.

As for our plotline: the quote above *glances up at "historical information"* mentions that Ar-Gimilzor moved all the Faithful that he could find to Rómenna to be watched. If we want to preserve the West => East journey, it would be possible that we were a group of still underground Faithful located near, or in Anduniė.

I'll come back later and post more, but I'm too busy to do it now.

In light of my cross-posting with Child, I've looked up possible translations for 'Kāthaanī' in Quenya. Best candidates are probably "Nerwen" or "Nerwendė".
