Character Name
Sylenriel
Sylenriel The "-riel" suffix places Sylenriel in the tradition of Tolkien's great elvish women — Galadriel, Celebrían, Arwen Undómiel — but her forest "Sylen-" prefix gives her a more specific, less cosmic nature than those names. A queen of the deep forest elves rather than of all elvenkind, whose power is rooted in a specific grove rather than in abstract light, and who defends it with the fierce particularity of someone protecting their home rather than the world.
