On the edge of a continent and the Deepvast Ocean,you will find cliffs and islands that are home to a mighty number of elves. If one were to stand on the top of the cliffs,one would find a land teeming with horses,elder oak trees and great hills. In the distance,a purple mountain range can be seen. Looking towards the ocean,one could see an archipelago of islands where birds of bright colors reside. The ocean is a sky colored blue close to land,but the deeper it goes,the darker and more permeating the blue becomes. From time to time,a dolphin pod leaps above the water on their whimsy.

Those whom reside on the islands are led by Chief Tidas,a wise and beautiful elf with a long history. These elves are great swimmers,many with magic shaped fins on their arms and legs and most with finned animal bonds. They are tender,playful and compassionate. Chief Tidas and others of his holt remember living elsewhere on the continent where life was hard and punishing. The islands are their heavenly refuge.

Chief Raven,a brave horse-riding warrior with a fiery temper,leads the younger group that lives in a cliff that was made into a hollow tower by ancient rock shaper elves. They all tend to the horses and are not afraid of pain. Trolls and humans plague them from time to time,and so they hone in their fighting skills to the utmost degree. They are the Tower elves.

Though the holts are as different as hot and cold,they are intertwined into a symbiotic lifestyle. What threatens one holt,whether that threat is from trolls,humans,or within,it will assuredly affect the other. One holt watches the land while the other watches the sea,and though their leaders tend to only tolerate one another,the holt's members mix and intermingle as recognitions and lovematings take place.

Life is full of adventure on the Ocean's Edge!
