Arien and the Early Edain

brighteyedarien:

Arien has always had a particular affection for humans, ever since they awoke in the ancient, then-lush depths of the East. Her first rising followed the path of their western steps and her light intimidated Melkor’s servants, such that humans did not fear to travel by day. She felt that the distance of the Ainur was an injustice. Orome had come or the elves in Cuivenen, why had no one come for the mortals?

She loves their drama and their internal, quick-burning flame. In ancient days, she would often adopt a human like form and move among them as an innocuous-looking woman with golden-hair. Meanwhile, a portion of her multi-present consciousness would hold the burning sun in orbit. Early bands of travelling Edain would pay little or no heed to the strange, intuitive, young woman that moved among them with an attentive fascination for their concerns and conversations. 

When her travelling “friends” would reach a group of protective Eldar, they would often find that their travelling companion had vanished.

Though her journeys are less frequent nowadays, Arien still travels.

During the Music, they had been ignited by the Imperishable Flame. They were divine embers, twirling in the newly formed Air until their sparks met and were fanned into a roaring desire. Whenever Mairon could slip away from the forge, he would meet her under the branches of Laurelin. Their coupling was masked by the eclipsing glow of the Tree. It was all they had; brief interludes between the ever-growing responsibilities of the Maiar. 

It was on this affair that Mairon, now Sauron would always allow his mind to drift for peace after Melkor’s designs had sundered all Arda had held dear. He would never forget what the Vala had done to his kindred Flame. While his mind was drifting, it was also plotting. Plotting to repay Morgoth for his forced ravishing tenfold. He wouldn’t be called “Master” for much longer.
