The Origin of the Elves

Even
the Elves themselves are unsure of their exact origin, which was lost
in the dawn of time. What is known, however, is that they come from the
beautiful Isle of Ulthuan where they lived and prospered for centuries
in peace and harmony, learning the arts of the Old Ones. Blessed with
grace, beauty, strength, and intelligence, they lived for thousands of
years in a state of peace that many thought would never end.

When
the Old Ones’ Warp Gates collapsed, however, the forces of Chaos
arrived. Trapped on their island, the Elves fought bravely against the
hordes of daemons that came from beyond the stars, but they seemed
unstoppable. Many of the Elves, capable of deep and intense emotions,
began to study the way of the warrior, and were in charge of organizing
the island’s defenses against the assault. Among these was the greatest
and most tragic hero the Elves have ever known: Aenarion, who would
later become the first Phoenix King of the Elves.
