Elf Warrior Princess Tori


Tori Undomiel Elf Warrior Princess
There was a history on our planet long before our age, the age of Men.  We knew nothing about it until "The One" communicated to the mind of a linguistics and English professor named John Ronald Reuel Tolkien.  Back then much of the Earth was known as Middle Earth.   This is Tori,Undomiel...a cousin of Arwen Undomiel.  The two princesses shared a last name.  Undomeil means Evenstar.  When the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings stories were revealed to J.R.R. Tolkien the story of Tori was left out.  Tori was a brave elf princess who also helped defend the forests of  the Woodland Realm.  She had to deal with orcs and the occasional troll.  She would also visit her relatives in Rivendell for years at a time...especially when she had had a hard few years like when Smaug took over the nearby Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor in The Lonely Mountain.

Tori had a friendship with a dwarf noble who she met in her people's trading negotiations with the dwarfs.  She had a huge influence on her friend Tauriel.  So when Tauriel met the young dwarf prince-ling Kili she was willing to give him half a chance.  (That relationship never worked out because Kili was killed in the Battle of Five Armies.)

Tori eventually ran into her dwarf  nobleman a few years after Smaug destroyed the dwarf Kingdom of Erebor.  Tori had not seen her friend for several years but when she was on a trading mission for Rivendell, staying at the Prancing Pony, she ran into him.  He had been living in the Iron Hills.  Their friendship was rekindled, along with love, so she ran away with him.    The dwarf nobleman she married was named Hadoras.  He took her to a small valley in the Iron Hills and they raised a family.  Interestingly enough, their offspring looked very human and were eventually incorporated into the population that now rules the Earth...in the Age of Men.  So, there are people among us who are part dwarf and part elf.  This is not a well known fact.  If you are particularly lucky it may be that you have some of those magic genes of power from your ancestor Tori Undomiel.... the elf princess.  Of course, it could be that you are a decendant of Arwen and Aragorn instead. When a descendant of Tori and Hadoras meets a descendant of Arwen and Aragorn, they feel a familiarity and often get married.  This helps preserve those precious elf genes in our population.

I am convinced that this is why my wife, Laurel, and I felt such a familiarity when we met.   That or some kind of premortal existence we must have shared together.

The above drawing is a coloring page drawing of Tori.  The below drawing is not a coloring page.  It is Arwen, Tori's cousin.  This my fan art drawing.  It took MUCH longer to do than a coloring page drawing.  I think the actress, Liv Tyler did a magnificent job portraying the Elf Princess Arwen in The Lord of the Rings movies.
