Andi Vanariel Andorëiel-Árarilya was born as the twin sister of Anmôriel-Árael. They were the daughters of Arwen Evenster and Aragorn, king of Gondor. Andorëiel was always tall, with pointed Elven ears and an Elven carriage. She had piercing emerald eyes and long mahogany hair that she always wore in a braid. She was gifted with the power of moving silently and she was at her quieckest when climbing trees. She spoke rarely and rarely let her emotions show, remaining closest to her twin. She would sit in a tree for hours, simply letting her hair blow over her face, reflecting. When Aragorn died, Andorëiel and Anmôriel were given the surname of Vanariel, daughters of the lost King. The two, still young, parted ways and went questing. After some time in Mirkwood, the place she came to know as her home, Andorëiel came to Rivendell. There, she was reunited with her sister, who had been nicknamed Mori. Andorëiel learned of the demise of her mother, and was grieving when an Elven lady, Gall Belthil, adopted Andorëiel as her own. By then, Andorëiel was known as Andi and had become well-known throughout Imladris. Andi had thought to only stay in Rivendell a few weeks, but she soon found it becoming her beloved home. Laebeth, Leyowena, Laurelote, Minstrell, Naia and GreyPilgrim the Istari, and Luvi Tindomerel the Gondorian all became Andi's surrogate siblings, all of whom she loved very much. She has adopted Aniroharma the half-Ent half-Elf, Sireaina the Elf, and Mornalote the Elf as her beloved daughters. And she soon met the love of her life, Endilion, to whom she is now engaged and happily awaiting marriage. Andi has many friends and relations in Rivendell, including Arlo Cuthalion, Elenedhel, Alkthoniel, Ciaran, Dinrothion, Lyceus, Curufinwe, Astaldoreiel, Anar, Avarhiliel, Jade Laurelin, Taurheniel, Feanen, and Merlome. She is a head of the Rivendell Writer's Guild and an active participant in many of the activities that go on in Rivendell. The wandering maiden who was once lonely is now full of life, and enjoying it immensely. Back to the top Return to the front page of the book
