"Too bright were the eyes of Arien for even the Eldar to look on, and leaving Valinor she forsook the form and raiment which like the Valar she had worn there, and she was as a naked flame, terrible in the fullness of her splendor." — Quenta Silmarillion

one of the greatest parts of the Tolkien legendarium is that the Moon is a flighty jock who desperately wants to be a malewife, but can’t because the Sun (ultimate girlboss) won’t have him.

for quite some time now ive wanted to redesign some of my existing maiar designs as well as give proper designs to some ive never really bothered with before, so here's some updated fullbody concepts! im happiest with mairon's honestly, but i really like the idea of olorin being a haggled, minimalistic shepherd who walks around valinor covered in dirt HAHAHAH

i also wanted to explore some of their potential dynamics with each other 😙 esp eonwe-ilmare and mairon-arien as siblings so these are just some quick doodles cuz my neck is in pa i n

compiled fullbody ref sheet under the cut 💃

“The maiden whom the Valar chose from among the Maiar to guide the vessel of the Sun was named Arien, and he that steered the island of the Moon was Tilion.” - the Silmarillion, J.R.R. Tolkien

I think Melkor's dating problems mostly boil down to him getting the order of operations wrong due to his impatience.

He proposed to Varda before they were even dating

He told Arien that he's chosen her as his spouse before even properly introducing himself to her (thought he could short-cut the process by removing the part where he asks for permission...)

He informed Lúthien about Valinorean orgies sex crimes and slavery instead of flirting

He wanted to get his hands all over Fëanor's crown jewels before Fëanor even agreed to be in his presence

This also explains why Mairon out of all people fell for it. Melkor totally started out with promising him power and other cool stuff and Mairon is the kind of person to talk business first, before accepting various compliments about his beautiful fána, charming intelligence and general admirability

Мечты Тилиона

The Moon Rabbit and the Sun Hare (Sunbeam)

Tilion's Dreams

К концу года кролика дорисовала задуманную еще к его началу картинку: майя солнца Ариэн и влюбленный в нее Тилион, майяр Луны. By the end of the year of the rabbit had completed the picture conceived at the beginning of the year: Arien, guide of the sun and Tilion, guide of the moon, who is in love with her
