Editing Mad Season: Cultural Setting (section)

=ELVES=
Elves may be found as wanderers throughout the lands of the Shattered Coast and are generally accepted the way a grazing horse might be accepted. Noticed but ignored.

Presumably a land exists where the elven people hold sway, but if it does it is a closely guarded secret.

==Language==
Elves speak '''Dwarven Trade''' (Common) and '''Elvish'''. True Elves also speak the '''Sylvan''' tongue. Half elves speak '''Dwarven Trade''' (Common) and '''Elvish''' and may speak one other language of their choosing.

==Government==
Elves typically submit to the laws of the lands they inhabit. If they have their own government, it is not known.

==Religion==
Elves quietly worship the sister goddesses Maerlwyn and Marwolaeth.

===Maerlwyn===
Taking the aspect of a tree spirit, Maerlwyn is the goddess of endurance and growth, nurturing the elven people wherever they may wander. Three glowing stones circle her head at all times and her feet, like roots, forever sink into the ground.
 
===Marwolaeth===
Lithe and young, Marwolaeth is depicted as a young girl clad in a dark cloak with her long blonde hair flowing free behind her and deep, dark eyes. If one looks closely, it is said the twinkling stars can be seen in the depths of her cloak and her eyes.

Marwolaeth bears a pair of bone daggers, stained a deep red along the blades.
