Vilya Elathelas of Rivendell · 02-18-2002, 08:27 PM

Well, Vilya is the Ring of Air, which I like, and it's sapphire, which is not only my birthstone but my cat's name. And it resided in Rivendell, which has to be my FAVORITE place in all of middle-earth.

Elathelas is my 'elvish' name, or what the elves would call me if they saw me. Anyone who knows elvish can translate that.

HINT: the El- 'star' is as far as I got in transdlation, but I've got a pretty good idea of what the words 'athelas' means anyway. [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
