Note: Based on the English preposition “to”, you might be tempted to say i aranenna, but that is really “towards the king”, as in “in the direction of the king”, which while technically feasible, is less likely to be the intent. Here the king is almost certainly the indirect object, which uses the dative case in Quenya: aranen.
