To Illynora Sylvaeri of Serinwë’s Hand,

---

While you do not yet know me, I am Arien Íreth of the Mallos, daughter of Círion and Adanel. I was born of the Almenodrim upon a grey isle far between the lands of Aevos and Azuras. We knew it as Tol Craban, and the quiet settlement founded by my progenitors is known to us as Caras Hart. It came about as a trio of wayward ships fleeing Aevos came upon the landmass mid-transit. I was born too late to have experienced the ruin they could not forget.

It’s only been in recent years that I’ve arrived on the mainland of Azuras. I’ve found it to be full of beauty yet full of noise. The weight of many different peoples living and dying upon the same ground is heavy. It took no effort and little will of my own to be swept by the Thalassa’s tide into the deep waters of this world. Fortunately, I have come to travel with another of the Almenodrim. His name is Úrion and he is my age, or near enough, new to these lands as well. It was both through him, and my cousin Aer’dir, that I was able to meet Fëanor.

On the paths we walk in life, I shared with him my desire to mend and heal as my mother had. While I learned basic medicine growing up, Fëanor implored that I seek you or Medli within Illivira. He spoke with a warmth for all that you know. I would wish to learn anything you may be willing to impart. Even beyond healing, I lack the wisdom of those which came before. I am still youthful in years, and have much to learn on this journey. But, I have crossed the seas alone, and have not turned back. If you will write to me, I will greatly appreciate that kindness forevermore.

If it is not to be, then I would still thank you for the chance to pen this letter. I will still be one who seeks, striving to find peace and offer aid in this world.

With Peace and Starlight,

Arien Íreth Mallos,
