The Eaerlann Kingdom

History

It was founded by Sharrven nobles in −4700 DR and lasted for around six thousand years. Together with Sharrven, it suppressed the spread of evil in Siluvanede and maintained the peace. Their land was bound by the eastern part of the High Forest from Turnstone Pass in the north to the Shining Falls in the south.

In −3830 DR, Eaerlanni elves began to teach their magic to the humans of Netheril, which birthed their obsession with arcane magic.

In the Year of the Curse, 882 DR, the combination of the demonic invasion that spilled forth from Ascalhorn, the continued assault of the orc hordes, and the weakening of the kingdom by elves retreating to Evermeet resulted in the kingdom's collapse.

Legacy

After the collapse, some of the elves of Eaerlann joined with dwarves and humans to form the Fallen Kingdom. By the mid 14th century DR, all that remained of the kingdom of Eaerlann was a crumbling old road and a ruined port.

The Council of the Wood, or Caerilcarn, is a group of wood elf elders and moon elf nobles who share a common dream of raising a new Eaerlann, a dream that is slowly coming to fruition. Through the group's efforts, the settlement of Tall Trees (the ancient site of the kingdom's capital) was built and the new settlements of Reitheillaethor and Nordahaeril were founded. The Caerilcarn is headed by The Red Lady Morgwais Nightmeadow, the Lady of the Wood, and was led by its spokesman Yrind Morninglight.
