I'd like to know where in Aversill are the Elven lands/territories.
Also, I changed to full elf. So now Emily and I are both thief/wizard Elves. Emily, I'm interested in pursuing my thief streak more than the wizard, how 'bout you?

There are a few different ways to answer this: on Aversill, the elves actually have a territory of long standing that’s been there for 2 or 3 thousand years. It’s called Ulf Kontali and is located just above the Cold Wood Forest and continues East. Ulf Kontali does have elfish kingdoms within it, but a lot of the land is simply claimed by the elves and kind of off limits to the colonists from Sturmgort. To be from Ulf Kontali is to be from one of the outposts. There aren’t many Ulf Kontali elves born outside the major cities because most of that land is kind of considered sacred and/or dangerous. The humans may attempt to plunder a continent of ancient mysteries without considering the power they might unwisely unleash, but elves are a lot more cautious.
Ulf Kontali, by the way, is a colony of Aziahulathein (pronounced: Ozzy Hula Thine) which is the elves ancestral land. It’s about the half the size of Australia and is elf only. A character might be from Aziahulathein and new to the continent of Aversill, in which case they might be there for any number of reasons. They could be there professionally, on some kind of political errand, or maybe they were just tired of living amongst nothing but elves.
Lastly, when Sturmgort sent colonists over six hundred years ago, there was a Sturmgortian elf contingent among them as well as diplomats from Aziahulathein. This means that there are simply elves living in Aversill within all the kingdoms or cities on the map. There are smaller elf enclaves on the map as well between the big cities. In addition, there is one elf run city in Aversill. It’s called Lavenshoal and is located half way between Einhorn and Seacourt.
