Here’s a little drawing I did of what Olorin might have looked like back in his Valinor days!!

I actually drew this because I’m playing Gandalf big naturals in a crazy dnd campaign rn. Also in the campaign are Rick Grimes, trans!fem Carl Grimes, Jawbone O'Shaughnessey, and Mabel Pines

Alqualondë

And here it is! My attempt at a layout of Alqualondë. A more detailed breakdown of some of the sights in the city by sea can be found below the “keep reading” cut.

5. Seafarers Square: Fresh seafood and pearls can be found here.

The City:

1. Saltstone Keep: The palace of Olwë, where he holds court. The layout is based on the shape of a turtle. The palace gets its name due to the white stone obtained from quarries by the Saltstone Cliffs.

6. Plaza of Merchants: Traders from all over Valinor and  Alqualondë itself, come here to sell their wares.

7. Assembly Hall: Public meetings, hearings, and dances are held here.

8. Plaza of Guilds: Every guild, from shipwrights to bakers to weaponsmakers to apprentices, can be found here.

9. Plaza of Troupes: Entertainment. Fire dancers and jugglers and acrobats can be found performing here during the times allotted for each troupe.

10. City Square: Town criers make public announcements here.

11. Plaza of Steel: Chain mail, arrowheads, and other steel goods are produced here.

12. Plaza of Stone: Sculptors of stone and clay can be found here.

13. Plaza of Gold: Gold and silver jewelry of all sorts are produced by smiths here.

14. The Library: The rarest of books, parchments, and engravings are stored here. The library is also used as a school for elflings.

15. Starlight Grove: A park open to the public.

16. Cobblers Square: The ideal place to find all kinds of shoes, sandals, and boots.

17. Plaza of Glass: Glassmaking, glass art, and artists who specialize in stained windows can be found here.

18. Plaza of Jewels: Gems can be cut, polished, brought, and sold here. 

19. Plaza of Weavers: Everything from sails to garments is made here.

20. Eru’s Temple: A place dedicated to Eru. Weddings are held here.

2. The Singing Trees: So named for the strange but beautiful sound the trees make when the wind blows through them.

Others:

1. The Labrinth: An ancient forest with a complicated network of trees. It is easy to get lost in this forest. Only experienced hunters and trackers go here.

3. Eagle’s Bluff: The only place in all of Alqualondë where eagles can be found.
