Albenheim
Albenheim is the realm of the Light Elves, so it is more properly referred to as Lichtalbenheim.
An entrance to the realm is located several miles away from the confluence of the Blau and Thur rivers. It is located atop a densely wooded hill, inside a fairy ring, at the center of which stands a thick tree with standing stones build into it. Touching the standing stones allows passage into the realm, although, as stipulated by Edelweiss, who is likely an Albenheim native, crosses must be removed prior to the entry.
At this point all that is know about the realm is that time passes differently there - when the party passed through the portal, they emerged into a summer day, though it had been a cold fall night in their world. They appeared next to another set of standing stones, on top of a mountainside covered in edelweiss flowers, which seemed residually magical. A meadow below was covered with red flowers, and below that, there was a vast, gyrating forest. There is is also a white reflective structure (or perhaps a lake) somewhere in the middle of the forest, off in the distance. The woods appear to be magical as well, and covered in ley lines, when looked at with magical eyes. Casting spells in Albenheim also seems to have unpredictable side effects - a simple tune produced with prestidigitation becomes a loud horn blast. A donkey brought into the realm suddenly gained the power of speech.
