Valour
The elves value their community, they value this precious link they share, and as such, the concept of community is extremely important within the kingdom -o Qwir. The elves were united long ago against the various threat, and they still are to this day, it is that union that permitted their survival to the various event occurring on Toriel. Similarly, they value nature immensely, a vestige from their tradition before the Great Extinction, but the elves always placed themself as protectors of this nature, and to this day, they still do, their cities are overgrown with tree and verdant moss, and they protect what is left of the forest on their territories.Diplomatie
Relations
The kingdom -o Qwir, thanks to his link to the Feywild, is able to provide very unique goods, and as such, is closely linked to the other kingdom within the empire in order to trade. But, the trading with foreign nation is made under the name of Tana's Empire as a whole.Conflict
The elves do not adopt the division in three categories most of the empire has adopted. The noble while generally taking on important roles in the elven society, do not enjoy any privileges, besides those offered by their wealth. Ever since the independence of the Qwir, the kingdom is fqced with the looming threat of the empire that might strike at any time.History
Founded in 0 AD, with the return of the elves to Toriel, the kingdom was built upon the ruins of the ancient elven civilization. But, the independence of the kingdom -o Qwir was short-lived, as men gathered into a strong union, and started to march west to the elven lands during Tana's Great Reunion. By the time the great kingdoms of the elves realized the violence that inevitably follows the humans, it was already too late. The eyes of the human leaders fell greedily on the prosperous lands of the elves. Tana's Great Reunion had begun and humans were here to stay. Different tribal armies marched simultaneously west, and south; no land was safe. Unable to unite or react in time, the elven monarch watched as human warriors swarmed and usurped their lands. The human race emerged victorious after years of bloodshed. The elves are blessed with keen eyesight and a great talent for archery. Their deep knowledge of the woodlands further complemented their deadly and silent armies, making them a force to be reckoned with, but their number lacking to face the army of the humans during the great reunion. Tana's Great Reunion costing the elf dearly. After the war, the elves' kingdom was left with only the Elven Forest under their dominion, and the snowy tundra to the extreme west. To strengthen the bond between the empire and the kingdom, multiple elves from the royal family mingled with the emperor family, Gaendur Tana was the first elf to become an emperor of Tana's Empire from 139 AD to 589 AD. A position that was much criticized by the people of the kingdom -o Qwir and the humans alike. Similarly, when Manael Tana accessed the title of empress, many contestations arises from the elven people, and those haven't calmed since she came back as the queen of the eleves.Independance
In a kingdom marked by unrest and discontent, Queen Manael faced growing opposition due to her perceived alignment with the empire, as she used to be Tana's empire previous empress. Her political decisions, strong ties with the imperial forces, and the enforcement of the kingdom -o Qwir as a vassal of the empire fueled dissatisfaction among the elves. The queen, known for her history as a power-hungry politician, swiftly silenced any voices of rebellion. The Elven Rebels, unable to openly confront the queen, operated in the shadows, diligently growing their forces. When a recent rift to the Elemental Plane of Fire emerged in the Wood of the Vales after an internal battle within the rebels, attributed to the rebelion by the empire, the empire and its vassal mobilized to address this perceived threat. The majority of the Soldiers of the Qwir were dispatched to support the empire army, leaving the capital, Megima vulnerable. Seizing this opportunity, the rebels launched a bold attack on Megima, aiming to dethrone the queen. With the citizens siding with the rebels, they easily reached the castle, demanding the queen's surrender. Fearful for her life, Queen Manael refused to open the castle doors, opting to let the city burn. Ida Emean aep Sivney, Her court wizard, conflicted by the queen's decision, opened the doors for the rebels and fled. As chaos engulfed the capital, Queen Manael retreated to her throne room, where Valia Abalhan, Vari Abalhan, and Fandral Staghelm confronted her. Vari drove a flaming sword through Queen Manael, bringing an end to her reign. A group of advenutrers, composed of Creyola Nepomuk, Faust von Verurteilung, Galad Ithil, Jade, Marilith and Orianna fought the rebels in an epic clash. Despite the adventurers emerging victorious, the toll is heavy: Marilith succumbs to the battle, and even with the combined healing powers of Galad and Jade, her body burns into ashes, rendering resurrection impossible. In the aftermath of the recent events, the Kingdom -o Qwir faced the urgent need for independence from the empire. The elves, having suffered enough under imperial rule, were eager to break free. With the announcement of the defeat of the rebels' leader, the adventurers took advantage of the situation to negotiate with the imperial general. They presented the empire with a choice: engage in a prolonged battle with them, resulting in considerable losses, or allow the elves to flourish in the reborn Kingdom -o Qwir. Recognized as heroes of great might, the adventurers leveraged their influence to facilitate the negotiation. The absence of a ruling leader after Manael's Death led the people to turn to Galad. His wisdom and unwavering protection of those he loved made him a suitable candidate for the throne. Galad, the only surviving elf among the adventurers, was crowned king of the elves, marking the beginning of a new era.
