“Codename: HEL – the hidden elven land – a place only spoken of in hearsay and legend. Ataraxia it seems has always had this… unique closeness of bond with everything Novus had to offer from the get-go; now it seeks to share its secrets with the rest of us, much to the chagrin of the native guardians. The elves, as they are called, were the stuff of myths in our old worlds – but here they are as real as you and me. Are they friends? I sincerely believe not – for Novus itself is friend to no one. Not that that would matter to us, mere invaders.”
“HEL is green, lush and verdant – as opposed to what others may have told you. Life is more dangerous than anything death can offer – for those living in HEL will oft introduce you to a quick demise. The wildness of it all is breathtaking, the grandeur of pure instinct, an unreliance towards technology – for they have symbiotically harnessed it, in their own way.”
“Perhaps they are closest to the Accretia – but they require not the metal nor the electricity, they have been shaping them as if they were truly one with it.”
“Maybe the Cora of DECEM would feel most akin to the inhabitants of HEL – with their logical magickry. But the forces binding these untamed forests are far older than what the priests and zealots, or even the God knows.”
“Or do the Bellato propose to free these natural wonders – seeking if they can relate to the smallkin’s yearning for freedom. But we have seen how the Bellato peddle their militaristic freedom – I doubt HEL will take to that.”
“No matter the courses of action our warring races would take in this virgin soil – Novus giveth, as they say… but Novus, too, doth taketh away.”
– Valkaheim, the Lost Prophet, GY 2020
