Vandaar The ancient center of the forest is said to hold redwoods born at the dawn of time, standing over seven hundred feet high and forty feet in diameter. Atop and throughout these gargantuan trees sits the capital city of Vandaar, constructed with the unique and expert craftsmanship of the Avariel and reinforced with the magic of the Gray elves, sturdy, beautiful and everlasting. Twisting, branchlike stairs with ropes of finely braided vine lead to platforms of ironwood, oak and interwoven darkleaf, all decorated with semi-precious gemstones of every color and exquisitely carved stone runes inset into the trees themselves. Tales even say that Elven tree-homes patchwork the sides of trees and hang from massive branches, preserving the sanctity and beauty of nature while adding the elegance and formality well known of the elven people. The manner in which these were built, of course, is considered but a myth in most tavern circles. Very few outsiders have ever actually seen the city of Vandaar and, as such, most of what one knows of the elven city is but hearsay and fairy tale. It is not doubted that the city exists; only that it does in such a mystical fashion.	0	0
