Míriel leans towards a way of thinking that centers Númenor more and could find a few common grounds or at least certain compromises with the other side (again, with her ideas remaining essentially and strongly Faithful), but that's a conversation for another day.

Tar-Míriel's wife 💍 @islandofnumenor.bsky.social · 1d

she wasn't differentiating between Faithful and King's Men, but her beliefs as one of the first do mark every word. It's not the same discourse on númenórean pride we hear from the King's Men, specially in context. I do think, however, that always inside the Faithful beliefs +

Day 7 - Favourite Númenor quote (trop)

I know I used this speech for day 3 but it just perfectly defines her character, specially as leader, and it encapsulates the spirit of old Númenor. Paired with her "our ancestors were not given anything, they paid for this isle with the +

Míriel saying "There is a fateful hour in the destinies of men. An hour of judgement in which each one of us, everyone, most decide who we shall be."

Are our hearts become as the statues that surround our island? Or do they best with the blood of the heroes that carved them?

Is our valour confined to the graves of our slumbering fathers?

Or is it hate amongst us even now, waiting to burst forth as the rising sun?

⛵️🌊 Númetober Day 7: Your favorite Númenor quote (TRoP) 🌊⛵️

"Faith is not faith if it is not lived." ~ Captain Elendil

...faith not necessarily in the religious sense, but in belief of many kinds.

Day 6 - Favourite Númenor quote (canon)

Look, being a Tar-Míriel fan is very difficult. In the Akallabêth we only have when it's said she was supposed to inherit the throne but was usurped and this, so it's going to have to be this. Fairer than silver or ivory or pearls 🥲💙

And last of all the mounting wave, green and
cold and plumed with foam, climbing over the land, took to its bosom Tar-Míriel
the Queen, fairer than silver or ivory or pearls. Too late she strove to ascend the
steep ways of the Meneltarma to the holy place; for the waters overtook her, and
her cry was lost in the roaring of the wind.

Day 5 - Favourite númenórean related book/text

The Fall of Númenor is very complete and I love it but I have to go with the Akallabêth. Nothing beats the original I guess.

A bit delayed, but I'm going to catch up on this starting today.

Day 1: Favourite Númenorean: It was a difficult choice, but it has to be Queen Míriel, as seen in The Rings of Power. It has been awesome to see her character given more depth in the show.
