“The spouse of Aulë is Yavanna, the Giver of Fruits. She is the lover of all things that grow in the earth, and all their countless forms she holds in her mind, from the trees like towers in forests long ago to the moss upon stones or the small and secret things in the mould. (…) Kementári, Queen of the Earth, she is surnamed in the Eldarin tongue.” (Valaquenta, The Silmarillion, J. R. R. Tolkien).

about

“In the beginning Eru, the One, who in the Elvish tongue is named Ilúvatar, made the Ainur of his thought; and they made a great Music before him. In this Music the World was begun; for Ilúvatar made visible the song of the Ainur, and they beheld it as a light in the darkness.” (Valaquenta, The Silmarillion, J. R. R. Tolkien).

“Valaquenta I” has been Frostgard’s first release, and it tells through ancient melodies, the story of the Valar and Valier Manwë, Varda, Aulë, Yavanna, Nienna, Mandos, Vairë and the dark lord Melkor.

Valaquenta is dedicated to the greatest spirits of this world, the Valar.
