Summary
In HoMe XI, The War of the Jewels, Tolkien wrote the following of the tale of the Awakening of the Elves by Cuiviénen,: "Actually written (in style and simple notions) to be a surviving Elvish 'fairytale' or child s tale, mingled with counting-lore."
Clearly, this leaves room for alternative origin stories. This sequel of sorts to "Ulmo's Wife" is one.
Written for Grey Gazania's birthday.
