The capital of Comeltum, Kelvan, is situated in the heart of the nation. The city itself is built into the natural landscape, not in the same fashion as your typical wood-dwelling elves, but in the respect that houses are formed into cliff sides or hilltops, or trees if necessary. This does not mean that the dwellings of Kelvan are any less ornate- great pains have been taken to display the obvious artistry of its inhabitants. The one piece of architecture that stands separate from the other dwellings is the Palace, a towering colossus of a structure, castle-like in appearance, but differing in the fact that the entire structure is built entirely from twisted spiraling wood, intertwined with rock and other earth-like substances. It is a unique building-utterly beautiful, yet formidable. Despite the fact that the Palace itself appears to be fragile, the raw magical powers of the elven earth mages are fused into the building itself, making it virtually impregnable.

The Flask and the Barrel is a little non-descript building, hardly fancy by elven standards. The building itself is situated in the heart of Kelvan and is built into a short, squat area of hillside. It's very indistinguishable with the exception of a small sign stating its name. The tavern keeper, Alarhaan, is a tall willow of a man-young and popular with the elven women. Very little is known about him or the history of the building that he built and established himself.

The Crying Hawk is one of Kelvan's most reputable, yet sinister, buildings. Made out of a great gnarled and twisted willow darkened with age, the building itself seems to resonate with a deep, dark sense of power. The interior is tastefully designed and is usually frequented by the upper class of Comeltum. It's owner, Rarihucc, is a mysterious, middle aged elf. He is known to frequent the nearby Hall of Foxes. Aside from his interactions with his customers, he tends to be a recluse.

Eraloriel, the lead mistress of the Hall of Foxes, is reputed to be one of the most loveliest elves in all of Comeltum. The Hall mimics her extraordinary beauty. She runs a tight establishment, only allowing the most notable citizens to visit the Hall. She charges a mint for the services provided there, and tends to use the funds for the betterment of the establishment.

Tirrian runs this popular inn in Kelvan. Charming and roguish in nature, he tends to attract enough customers to keep his business well situated financially. The Purple Talisman Inn is homely, with a cabinesque interior. Built into the cliffside, the inn boasts a superior view of the entire capital.

Balach's Grove is the only academy in the entire nation of Comeltum that is registered to teach the finer arts of earth magic. Typically, its lessons are reserved for the wealthy or well-bred, especially royalty. Each of its four teachers specialize in a specific type of earth magic, and their skill is reputable around the world. The Grove itself is formed in the center of a great stand of oak trees. Decades old, the trunks seem to spiral off into oblivion, and the academy itself is comprised of a series of interwoven buildings situated high up in the canopy. Only students and teachers are allowed near or on the academy for the area is considered sacred ground.

The northeastern most portion of Comeltum is dominated by treacherous marshes. Few venture across the marshes without a guide, for the mud is known to suck all sorts of folk under. There is an air of hostility surrounding Onilia, and many are aware of it. Inhabited by all sorts of mythical beasts, the marshes are best avoided. In the center of the marshes is Imgara, a small elven city.

Moderator: Talia

Imgara is a small elven town, and one of the less revered by far. The folk that frequent Imgara tend to be shady at best. It's widely known for its wealth of assassins, mercenaries, and all sorts of cretins. Well bred elves are typically not seen here, nor is their presence appreciated by the locals. The Duke And Duchess of Imgara govern the city (Tiraruen and Aenthyuste Uhoranean). The Duke is a rather complacent man, and it is widely known that his wife holds the power over the city.

The Port of Loresia is one of the realm's best known trading routes. The port itself is attached to the city of Lionem, a small harbor town not run by any one group in particular. The port captains tend to "run" the city and the port, and there are a lot of politics surrounding the various crews and their captains. The Port itself is situated on the south western tip of Comeltum.

Lionem is the next booming metropolis. Situated at the south western tip of Comeltum, it is attached to the Port of Loresia, the realm's key trading post. Lionem appears to be a sleepy harbor town, however, a large political force has been growing there recently. Lionem houses many different types of individuals, from the well bred, to traders, to mercenaries.

The trough, as it's been coined, is a large gorge separating the grasslands from the deserts. The canyon itself spreads for miles, from shore to shore. At the floor of the gorge lies a small lake inhabited by the odd fish. Very few inhabitants live near or in the gorge, as the rocky terrain tends to be rather treacherous. The Trough, however, must be traversed in order to reach Shyasia and only the most skilled guides can take people across.

Amidst the rolling sands of the deserts of Comeltum stands the Shyasia Oasis, a sight for sore eyes for most travellers. Shyasia is one of the most beautiful Elven cities, perhaps even more so than the capital itself. Shyasia is a place of glamour, and the city seems to be encrusted with the sparkle of jewels, brightly coloured fabrics, exotic plants and shining precious metals. The elves take pride in their architecture here as well. Most of their dwellings are extremely ornate, chased with precious metals. Although they resemble normal human dwellings from the outside, the way they are shaped and the materials used are remarkable. Shyasia is ruled under the iron fist of the Duchess, Alateis.

Slisambur is a tree-dwelling elven town. Set amidst the Tinndra forests, the structures twirl and spiral up into the canopies of the trees. Slisambur is large in size, second only to Kelvan. Many traditional elves tend to make Slisambur their home. The city is ruled by the Duchess and Duke, Narael and Danortieh. Both are well liked among their citizens, and greatly respected in the capital as well.

Moderator: Talia

Tinndra is comprised of the vast forest region surrounding Slisambur. Miles upon miles of trees cover the hillsides, making the forest nearly impassable for those without a guide. There is one central trading trail that runs through the forests to the gates of Slisambur, but aside from that, Tinndra remains untouched by human or elven hands. Very little is known about the creatures that inhabit the forests.
