Uinen

|
Uinen was Ossë's wife in the Middle-earth mythos of J. R. R. Tolkien. She was a Maia spirit known as "The Lady of the Sea".
Her hair lies spread throughout all waters, and her love is given to the creatures that live in salt streams and also the weeds that grow there. The mariners of Númenór would cry to her for help, because she was capable of calming Ossë, and they lived under her protection while their respect for the Valar endured.
