notes from mythologies about elves
The Valswyn remained hidden for many centuries after the GK, hiding mostly in dense jungles and deep caves. Few hid in remote deserts, near impossible for any one else. The world believed the Valswyn to have perished during the GK, though often someone who ventured too deep into a jungle, or the wrong cave, or attempted to cross the most inhospitable parts of the deserts, would never be seen again.
But after Prince Eluthiel exposed the continued existence of the Valswyn, word traveled quickly. Wars almost broke out between the Valswyn and other races. Though there is officially peace with the Valswyn, tensions are still high, especially towards and among the older Valswyn: those who lived during their hiding. Many Valswyn left the jungles for the deserts, but in more hospitable locations, and there they thrived. The Valswyn find more comfort in being in deserts than other environments, even if they were raised elsewhere.
