Ulmo, Lord of Waters
Ahh it took me so long to finish this! I had a lot of work to do last few weeks, but I am glad I finally found time to polish this baby :>

the voyage of elwing and eärendil
for day 7 of @tolkienseaweek
When people watch the Lord of the Rings movies and question why the Nazgul are unwilling to go into the water, I'm always the crazy one yelling, "THE MUSIC OF THE AINUR IS ALIVE IN THE WATER!"
And it is said by the Eldar that in the water there lives yet the echo of the Music of the Ainur more than in any substance else that is in this Earth.
Ilúvatar's music is basically existing in its second purest form in the water?? Of course, the evil guys aren't going anywhere near that.
Also, Ulmo is scary. The one Valar vibing in middle-earth's seas at all time? Yeah, I wouldn't risk it either if I was an evil creature.
Some Valar designs (+ Uinen!)

Ulmo loves elves. He's always had a special affection for them, even more so than his peers. Maybe because he is the closest to them in a way. Water is almost everywhere, lakes, streams, rivers...and the sea is so great, and the coasts are so long...
Maybe this is why he very gently takes the broken form of the last Fëanorion out of the water where he had thrown himself, and deposits him softly on the coarse sand of the beach.
He watches him shiver, fëa in disarray, wracked with despair, tears streaming still from wide eyes where the light of the trees yet remain. Ulmo watches him trying to scramble back into the water, only for the tide to recede before him. He won't let him follow the silmaril he threw in the waters.
Fire is not his domain, he could not save his brother. But maybe he can save him.

Ulmo, Lord of the Waters
Inspired by the part in The Fall of Gondolin where Ulmo sends Voronwë to Tuor, I drew a couple of mini-comics.
I find it so wonderfully creepy that Ulmo specifically enchanted Turgon and Finrod into a deep sleep when they visited the Twilit Meres south of Doriath. Thinking about them lying upon the moss surrounding that maze of creeks and reeds, the only sound their quiet breathing and the song of the insects, frogs and running water beneath the stars.
We know too that this experience does not end when they wake and that they wander alone in the wilds for some time, pondering dreams they don’t quite remember. I wonder if they were drawn to the other strange waters of Beleriand where the power of Ulmo is stronger
I like to imagine that this spell of Ulmo remains in the meres and that visitors there are occasionally prone to a sudden wish to stop and rest beside the pools, and afterwards find themselves troubled by dreams of oceans and white walls they have never seen and never will
