1.1 Aiya!… ar Namárië!

Four panels on a sunny morning in a harbour town. On the left, two young women greet each other as friends, one waving and one opening her arms for a hug, and later wave goodbye over their shoulders. On the right, an older teacher with silver hair and a bearded man with a suitcase shake hands with a slight bow at a glass door, and later the teacher waves goodbye from the door as the man leaves. The speech bubbles are empty.

1.2 Lúmë

Seven panels of one day in a harbour town, each labelled in Tengwar and Latin letters: at sunrise a ferry officer waves to a woman with a cup (amaurë); a young woman with a map in a sunny street (aurë); two men eating sandwiches on a bench at midday (endaurë); two women at a café in the afternoon (apárilë); five friends on the harbour wall at twilight (undómë); a teacher greeting a young woman under coloured lanterns in the evening (sinyë); and at night a man with a suitcase at a guesthouse door while another walks away waving (lómë).

1.3 Mana esselya?

A teacher with long silver hair and round glasses stands by an empty whiteboard, hand on his chest, introducing himself to four adult students sitting in a curved row; a young woman with golden hair answers him with her hand on her chest. The students wear blank name tags.

1.4 Mallo tulilyë?

Travellers with suitcases come down a ferry gangway onto a sunny quay with white houses and a small lighthouse; a bearded man is greeted by an older man with silver hair who waves, and a young woman with a yellow backpack reads a paper map. A small boat with a swan-shaped prow is moored nearby.
