Sing All Ye People

"The sun was low in the western skies, when Manwë's wind did cleanse the air--"

Arwen winced as the high note cracked, and only by strength of will didn't cover her ears. She quickly put on a pleasant expression as the singer appeared around the corner, heading for the dining hall.

"The troops all cheered Sauron's demise, and--Good morning, Mother!" Eldarion interrupted the song to greet her. "Happy Cormarë!" He gave her a hug and continued down the hall. "--And eagles brought the Ringbearers home from there!"

She would be so glad when Eldarion's voice finally settled!

It sounds like great fun to be a scribe! I would have wanted that if I lived back in the middle ages. I tried learning calligraphy once but I never got much practice at it. I do think I have a beginner's set somewhere though. :)

You should get your set out and play with it. Just have fun with it at first--letters are so much fun to play with--and calligraphy pens are perfect for copying out Elvish script in Tengwar.

I love letters--they are such a perfect invention! And you can make words with them too! LOL!

I have nothing but high praise for you people who practice the art of Caligraphy! I would like to give it a go except, well, I think the first prerequisite is to have legible cursive writing, lol. That list would not include me. :-P Glad you had fun!
