Elf:
Elves appeared when the continent was just formed. Early Elves dined on raw meat and blood, and the moonlight was their best companion during nighttime hunting, leading to their worship of the Moon. During the Night of the Full Moon, they would burst with primal desires. As a race created by gods, they possess magical powers within them and can use magic. Their unique culture is centered around the worship of nature and gods, and they are long-lived, which makes their development slow. Currently, they still maintain a self-sufficient small-scale agricultural economy. Previously, Elves were divided into different tribes fighting for control over the sacred spring water, which is the source of Elf magical power and vitality. Later, the Galladriel family rose to power, killing and absorbing half of the Elf population with their brutal external and tolerant internal policies. They became the rulers of the Elves and built the only large Elf town in the southern part of the Great Canyon, emulating the Human cities. They also became the highly anticipated rulers of the Elves.
Governance: Queen Vivian Galladriel is the supreme ruler because she has passed through the Tower of Heaven. With her demigod power, she can effortlessly destroy the continent, and is therefore worshipped by the Elves. Eight elders are in charge of administration, holding great authority in matters of worship, taxation, group activities, and even war. However, the actual power lies in Vivian's hands; without her orders, the elders cannot leave the city.
Religion: Worship of gods, forests, wars, main gods, medicine, and temples for each season. As long as the worship is sufficient, they can maintain favorable weather and even gain divine power. In fact, this divine power is nothing more than a strong magical force, such as Lucia gaining the power to control wind. The ultimate interpretation right belongs to Vivian herself, as she embodies a demigod and is the closest being to the gods.
Culture and Technology: The Elves' cultural technology is relatively backward, though their metallurgy and handicrafts are outstanding. Their crafted swords, bows, and arrows remain exquisite works that amaze Humans. Their culture remains prosperous, with poetry, songs, and novels widely circulated. However, the Queen has ordered that once a work is published, the author must submit the original to the library for preservation.
Army: The Elf army is much smaller compared to the Human army, with a total of eight legions and 40,000 soldiers who are equipped with long swords and bows and arrows. They alternate fire to disrupt the enemy formation, then draw their swords for close combat. Elves learn archery and swordsmanship from birth, so one Elf can easily kill four ordinary Human soldiers. Each legion also has a High Priest responsible for producing magical potions, which can be used to enchant blades and arrowheads with different effects such as explosion, burning, freezing, or poisoning. If given enough time, Elves can also gather their magic for attacks. The most powerful army is the Royal Guards responsible for palace security; their armor and weapons are personally blessed by the Queen and imbued with divine power. In addition,
there is the Shadow Force specializing in intelligence, assassination, infiltration, and sabotage.
Character: Elves love war! It's important to mention this three times – Elves are not a peace-loving race; rather, they thirst for war. They become extremely excited when faced with the prospect of war. However, Elves show sympathy to the weak, they don't pursue wealth and power, and they believe that bloodline and magic are the keys to domination, so they rarely harbor rebellious thoughts. As for love, Elves have an almost pathological attachment. If their lover is taken away during courtship, they would let go graciously and wish their former lover well, becoming friends later on. However, if one cheats after marriage, the unfaithful partner will likely be killed by the enraged spouse, who will be celebrated as a hero.
