Racial Articles A Scattering of a People: The Fate of the Moon ElvesOf those that remained, three distinct cultures formed. The first, of course being the last and scattered remains of the Moon Elves, who sought refuge with their Human allies. The Shar'Vaire, seeing the Humans more as pets or things of amusement paid little attention to them, hence those few Moon Elves that weren't outright exterminated or worse remained safe in their cities.

These Moon Elves along with the Humans, founded the cities of Sundown, Vale, Tashran and Windsong. Sundown was supposed to be part of this unified nation of Humans and Moon Elves that had settled on the eastern coast of the continent of Tal'rah that would later be known as the Windsong Republic. Politics and negotiations with the appointed colonial emissary in charge of the Sundown colony, named Ko`rashae Ri had swayed both the people of the colony and the Grand Duke Bellicose who sent forth the colony from Brookshire that Sundown should stand alone, in defiance of the Windsong Accord. The Accord was the treaty by which all the Humans and Moon Elf refugees had sworn an oath to uphold.

Because of this gathering of mingling of peoples, there are more Half-Elves of Moon Elvish stock than any other type. These Half-Elves are also represent a hefty portion of the population of all four of the currently thriving Human cities. Many tend to be practitioners of magic, having the benefit of the very old knowledge of their ancestors having been passed down in secret and kept safe from the Shar'Vaire Imperial Era.
