Seeking Tengwar assistance for a tattoo idea
Post Body

Hi all! I’m hoping that I can find someone here who can help me with a small personal project.

I’ve had a very challenging year dealing with anxiety and my mental health. I’m still struggling, but I think I’m slowly getting better. I made a promise to myself that once I’ve made it through this rough patch, I’m going to face my fear of needles and get a couple of tattoos to celebrate.

One LOTR quote that has always stayed with me, and which I’ve been continually trying to repeat to myself, is what Aragorn says before the battle of Helm’s Deep. “There is always hope”

I would love to get a tattoo of this, and it feels somehow fitting for the tattoo to be written in Elvish script.

I am a Lord of the Rings fan, but I’m by no means a Tolkien lore or language expert. I’m making this post in the hope that there is someone here who knows Tengwar, and could help me with this project by writing this phrase in Tengwar script (or could direct me to some resources.) I wasn’t sure which online resources on this topic were credible, so I thought making a post asking for assistance here might be a better option. Thanks so much in advance!

P.S. I know Tolkien was a professor of languages, and created many different languages, and variations of those languages, for the lord of the rings. If I am making an ill-informed decision by choosing Tengwar for this, please let me know! If there is another written language or style that would for one reason or another be more appropriate for this idea, please feel free to let me know!
