>Also, was the Alfheimian benediction in some Form of Tolkien Elvish?

Yeah, Phil came up with that. I don't recall offhand if it's Sindarin or Quenya. In the UF universe, the various modern Alven languages are descended from the ones recorded by Tolkien.

(Amusingly, the thing Maia says at the end is from Tolkien even in-story; it's a quote from The Return of the King. But then, in the UF universe, The Lord of the Rings is a historical text, describing the pre-Ęsir history of Alfheim, thinly disguised as fantasy literature.)
