In the fiction of [[J. R. R. Tolkien]], '''Ilmen''' is a part of the atmosphere that surrounds the world of [[Arda]] before the cataclysm at the end of the [[Second Age]]. Ilmen forms the outer layer of normal air: unlike [[Vaiya]] it only exists above Arda itself. Below Ilmen is the inner air, [[Vista (Middle-earth)|Vista]]. Tolkien likely derived its name from ''ilma'', the [[Finnish language|Finnish]] word for air. |
