Muse Poem by Kate and Mandy
The Lovers of Cerin Amroth
Their meeting in the night was of harmony like the sweetest dream with love, faith, and loyalty. Fate had brought them here, where stolen kisses were but a symbol of the depth of their love . He saw her, a work of art,and inspiration filled his heart to make a great music of purity that could only match her own. He knew not of the bittersweetness of immortality that lay upon her, instead he caressed her soft porcelain skin, which glowed with the eternal light of Aman. And in her eyes shone hope and wisdom and grace above all the Elf-Kind, and in that hour his destiny was appointed, for her dark beauty pierced his heart like cold iron. Arwen Undomiel, the Evenstar of her people. And he, Strider, the Elfstoneking in exile, who alone could yet bring greatness upon the world of men.
Their story, was not of fairy lore, but of great truth. In that moment their spirits united in a bond that would never be forgotten. Together, their matched dreams shown brilliantly. Only time could put asunder the desire and passion of their love. With great strength, forsaking the resting place of her ancestors the gray havens, she joined herself to the mortal Aragorn, swearing her life and fidelity to him. Being of wise temperament and courage, the Lady Arwen knew that dark times lay ahead, but still true love's hidden path, or friendships made or broken, their adoration would remain constant for all eternity, and forgiveness along with intuition would create memories to last a lifetime.

quotes ;
(My character) knows that Aragorn loves her. He's just having a little moment -- the wandering eye syndrome. Look, her father's like, "Leave her alone, you can't be with her. Accept it. Deal with it," he's trying to do the right thing. Then Aragorn suddenly meets this woman, a human, who's the ancestor of kings like he is, and they have a lot in common. They can share something that maybe he and (Arwen) can't, but he's not in love (with Eowyn). It's not destiny, it's not fireworks -- it's a little more practical. Whereas our relationship is not practical at all, it's just sort of.. beautiful" ~Liv Tyler
"She's very relaxed and surprisingly mature. She was so convincing, I honestly began imagining she really was an elf princess. As an actor, you learn to make the best of where you're living and who you are with at the time. People like Liv were so warm and welcoming to me, it made the work a pleasure" ~ Viggo Mortensen
I was with Viggo [Mortensen] and [sword-fighting coach] Bob Anderson, and I was surrounded by about 20 Uruk-hai who were all hitting me, and I had to attack them. It was terrifying! I just hid behind Viggo" ~Liv Tyler
"And what about Arwen? "She's really the love of his life," Mortensen says, "But he's not always sure how he feels about her because they're so seldom together or able to be at peace. So, he's not sure whether he can love her or be worthy of her. He knows how much she will have to give up to be with him, and it weighs on him." ~Viggo Mortensen
"[Arwen] is Aragorn's inspiration, on some level, throughout. She is his muse. There is a fated aspect of that relationship. He is always conscious, in some way, that it is his destiny to be with her somehow. I think also he feels guilt over his own heritage, and what damage was done by his forefathers. He also feels guilty about being with her. If he would be with her, he would rob her of her immortality. If an elf is with a human, they lose that." -Viggo Mortensen
"There's an interesting moment in all of this. Later on there's a moment when he's [Frodo] with Sam, and he kinda looks out over Rivendell, and you don't ever see what he's looking at. And we had shot a sequence where he sees me, and I look up at him, and Aragorn comes and meets me and you see us have this kind of tender moment, and then walk away. But that little moment didn't end up in the film, so..." -Liv Tyler
"I was staying with some friends in England, and it was New Year's, says Liv Tyler by e-mail. My husband, Roy, and I were sleeping, and I woke to the sound of our friends two little boys. They were going around the bedrooms opening the doors and looking in. When they got to our door, one little boy went to open it and the other said, "No! Don't open that door. The princess is sleeping in there." It made my heart leap out of my chest. I think that was the first time I really realized the impact these films had on people. -Liv Tyler
"I always feel really shy and a little bit needy when my ears are out! When they are not showing, I feel more confident. Viggo is completely obsessed with the ears! Every single scene we shot, he tried to throw in a moment when he touched the ears purely for the audience. He thinks that there are going to be some people out there with a fetish for elves' ears! (Laughter) Every single shot we did together, he would stroke my ear, and I was trying to keep a straight face and act! He would be looking at me lovingly and stroking my ear. It is so funny!" - Liv Tyler
