A few years back, a friend of mine asked me to think up a new handle for him to use on some forum. I had just re-watched the LOTR movies, so I came up with something vaguely elvish-sounding, and malendras was the result. It means nothing, has no relation to Quenya or Sindarin, it just sounded kinda elvish. He ended up using it on that one site, posted like 5 times, and then completely abandoned it. 6 months later I'm thinking up a new screenname for myself and I realize he hasn't used the SN anywhere since I gave it to him. So I stole it back and now it's mine.
