"Estë the gentle, healer of hurts and of weariness, is [Irmo's] spouse. Grey is her raiment; and rest is her gift. She walks not by day, but sleeps upon an island in the tree-shadowed lake of Lórellin. From the fountains of Irmo and Estë all those who dwell in Valinor draw refreshment; and often the Valar come themselves to Lórien and there find repose and easing of the burden of Arda." - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Silmarillion, "Valaquenta"

I don't usually repost, but the artist's Tumblr is deactivated so... have some Silm couples made by @leitiko-art once upon a time that I found elsewhere on the internet. Mostly Valar, one elf princess + mortal.

AN: For @holyplasmaball. I kept these two on my list to write about again and here we are with another cute little something. Hope you enjoy!

✍ Prompt: Ungwë (spider web) - Estë x Arien ✍ Synopsis: Arien barely manages to escape Ungoliant's web. Estë works on freeing her. ✍ Warnings: / ✍ Drabble ✍ SWG archive

"It feels as though it refuses to let me go." 

Arien shudders as she tries to free herself from Ungoliant's web of unlight once more. Burned and blackened from her fire, it nevertheless clings stubbornly to her luminous fána.

Thread by thread, Estë patiently works to unravel the web in which the Spider Queen has attempted to ensnare the poor fire spirit. 

She doesn't wish to dwell on what might have happened if Arien hadn't managed to flee. 

"It is persistent," Estë agrees, calm yet determined. "But it matters not. Once it is removed, I will take care of you." 

Thanks for reading! ♡
