No, this actually isn't where I got my username. I discovered the Celestial character from the Talisman board game just recently, way after I had chosen @celestal as my Steem account name, but celestial is indeed the word where my name is derived from.

You might know (or don’t) that a guaranteed way to find a cool sounding name for a heavy metal -band, is to borrow it from Tolkien and his languages.

Did you know that Sauron was originally Morgoth’s little bitch? Yeah, if you thought that Sauron was evil, just think of that dude.

So, I followed this guaranteed strategy and looked into some names.

And for some reason I remembered that celeb (pronounced with a k) in the beginning of those names means silver.

Then all heavens opened, my brain neurons aligned and I went:

"Ahaa!"

If you haven’t yet pulled all the pieces together, let me explain.

Guess what color stars are?

Then I just took the i away, and now it was my own little word and username to which I could attach all the meaning and etymology I wanted; the points at the sky, which the elves greatly admired, reminding them for their ethereal light stolen by Morgoth and his spider friend, from the Blessed Realms of Aman where Valar, Guardians of the World, created by Eru Ilúvatar, lived. That’s also the place where Elves sail back to from Middle Earth, summoned by the Valar because the magic of the lesser rings reducing the effects of time for the Elves in Middle-Earth, was now gone with the One Ring being destroyed. Elves weren't immortal as such, but as a result of Sauron's magic which was only a trick for his master plan to take over the Middle-Earth. The Elves were destined to eventually leave in the end of Third Age, at the start of the Age of Men, back to their original home. Otherwise they would've faded with the heavy burden of time on their shoulders.

Faded like a star that eventually burns its fuel to the end, turning into an invisible dust, shattered across all space, barely visible to begin with. But during its time gets to influence those the closest, maybe even someone far away catching the gleam,

Kinda like I,
