VAIRë

'Vairë the Weaver' is a Vala from the world of J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth. She is the wife of Mandos, and is responsible for weaving the story of the World in great tapestries that reveal how all events are inter-related.

Vairë is counted among the Valier, the Queens of the Valar; though not as great in power or prestige as some, her "storied webs" cover the Halls of Mandos, where she apparently lived.
In the Etymologies, the Noldorin equivalent of her name (Quenya "weaver") is given as '''Gwîr'''.

A different ' Vairë' appeared in some of Tolkien's earliest writings. In ''The Book of Lost Tales'', she was an Elf of Tol Eressëa. She and her husband Lindo tell the stories that would become the Silmarillion to the human mariner Ælfwine/Eriol. Her role as storyteller may have influenced the naming of the Vala responsible for recording stories.
