Moonshade casts her eyes upward as she begins to explain.
"The High Ones, sometimes also called the Firstcomers were the first elves on our world. They arrived in a crystal palace from beyond the stars. When they reached Abode, they found the world cruel and hostile. Humans were brutes even then, less willing or less able to communicate, and attacked them on sight. They fled, and found their own ways to survive in the cruel new world. Timmain, for example, took the form of a wolf, and was the first to learn to hunt. She mated with one of the wolves on Abode, and her son, Timmorn Yellow-Eyes, became the first chief of the Wolfriders. Our current chief, Cutter Kinseeker, is blood of eight-and-two chiefs, but we all come from Timmain's blood somewhere along the line."
