Foundation of Jin-El Aethis

Founding

Jin-El Aethis, my homeland, is an old and proud kingdom. Many of the shorter-lived races of this world fail to realize that it has only been two generations since our nation was founded. My grandfather was a young druid when Vimalus the Enlightened assumed the throne, and many elves can remember when the kingdom only stretched across a single island.

The founding of Jin-El Aethis is, of course, the most celebrated and important event in elvish history. The holiday is the oldest in the world, and the elven nation predates all others except for individual dwarf cities, some of which are pre-Cataclysm. Today our nation links the worlds of each of the continents together with our vast merchant fleet and presence in the Thousand Isles, and I truly believe Ultor would be lesser without it.
