A kind, loving elf gives her heart and immortality to a Numenorian man who becomes King of Gondor and Arnor who inevitably dies, leaving his elven wife and their children to the kingdom. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn her grief, Arwen leaves the kingdom to close out the rest of her days:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 class=\"quoteText\"\u003e“But Arwen went forth from the House, and the light of her eyes was quenched, and it seemed to her people that she had become cold and grey as nightfall in winter that comes without a star. Then she said farewell to Eldarion, and to her daughters, and to all whom she had loved; and she went out from the city of Minas Tirith and passed away to the land of Lórien, and dwelt there alone under the fading trees until winter came. Galadriel had passed away and Celeborn also was gone, and the land was silent.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e'There at last when the mallorn-leaves were falling, but spring had not yet come, she laid herself to rest upon Cerin Amroth; and there is her green grave, until the world is changed, and all the days of her life are utterly forgotten by men that come after, and elanor and niphredil bloom no more east of the Sea.”\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e― \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"authorOrTitle\"\u003eTolkien, J.R.R\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"authorOrTitle\"\u003eThis is an original oil painting on stretched canvas, with high quality heavy duty wiring for secure mounting.
