A few Faerie elders of the Steel Realms (mostly Ynthian) and Green Speakers know the legend of the Winter Elves. A kingdom amidst overcast skies, in snowy mountain tops like the syphym – the Flying Elves that were long gone. These elves are said to pre-date the coming of the Blood of Saemon on the Aelfpaths of the Steel Realms, and watched the from afar as calamity after calamity has befallen the world, staying silent, powerful, and reserved – nudging and setting things in motion with an unseen hand to help the forces against evil for tens of thousands of years.
