Me a few months back: “Elves don’t have wings, we’re leaning more into the deer motif than the bird motif, in a large part because they are so tall their wingspan would have to be ridiculous.”
Me, a bunch of worldbuilding and plotting later: “…I think at least some of the elves might have to have wings.”
#and I’m mad about it#because the point of the wingspan size still stands#might have to just#handwave/ignore that#which i hate doing#but such a huge part of Rivendell as I’ve been building it is how remote and difficult to access it is#so far up in the mountains#you can’t really access it without flying#and then there’s the whole thing with ice coating Scott’s wings#which just doesn’t hit the same if it’s elytra#ugh#the wings are a Quenya thing the antlers are a Sindarin thing I think#(yes this means that Xornoth and Scott are descended from both)#(a lot of people are at this point in rivendells history I think)#(it just doesn’t show quite as obviously)#le sigh#here we go I guess#smajor got his wings back yippee#rain rambles#Rivendell siblings#smajor#Xornoth#marriage of state au
