History
As with all Elves in Armea, the High Elves arrived with from the Feywild during the War of Asala alongside their Fey masters. Used as soldiers for some unknowable scheme by the Fey, the Elves were abandoned in the Material Plane when their masters were defeated. Fleeing to Norstir, they helped established the Summer and Winter Courts on that continent.
High Elves broke off from the Wood Elves distinctly around this time as they were more inclined to travel through their new home to learn of it, while the Wood Elves attempted to rebuild their homes in the Feywild anew in the forests.
