In a forgotten time, the elves were one diverse, surface dwelling race... Dark elves have no limits of morality. Twisting magic, they attempted creating legions of monsters to hunt down the others, the banished elves. When prospectors dug into dark elf territory looking for large lifestones, the dark elves discovered a new world they had forgotten, ripe for the taking.

Shadow:

Slipping through volatile turmoil at the center of the world, tiny demons infested the underworld. Almost imperceptible, these Shadows are a hidden hazard in the darkest of the dark places. The unseen kills before the danger is ever known.
