When Sucellus withdrew from Erebus his children were left to rule themselves. They decreed that they would be ruled by two queens, each for half of the year. One queen ruled the summer court and under her the elves nurtured beauty and art, and trained in the vigilant defense of their empire. The other queen ruled the winter court which was made up of the mischievous members of the fey kingdom, the tricksters, illusionists and those fond of laughter and nights spent dancing under the stars. It continued like this all though the Age of Magic. The elven empire grew and revered Sucellus.

abstract	When Sucellus withdrew from Erebus his children were left to rule themselves. They decreed that they would be ruled by two queens, each for half of the year.

The other queen ruled the winter court which was made up of the mischievous members of the fey kingdom, the tricksters, illusionists and those fond of laughter and nights spent dancing under the stars. It continued like this all though the Age of Magic. The elven empire grew and revered Sucellus. That lasted until the god of Winter entered creation and dropped Erebus into an unending winter. Faeryl, queen of the winter court, refused to abandon her throne for as long as winter remained. The elves prayed for help and Sucellus answered, coming personally into creation to battle the god of winter. But Sucellus was killed in that battle and his children were left alone and godless. Faeryl ordered that the worship of the dead god was useless and that the empire should instead revere Esus, the god of night and deception. The shrines of Sucellus were torn down and the priests unwilling to abandon their old faith were rejected from the elven nation. But the summer court rallied against this. Under Arendel, queen of the summer court, they raised an army and attacked the members of the winter court, dropping the elves into a bloddy civil war. As the world continued to cool from the presence of Mulcarn and the death of Sucellus it became less and less habitable. In time only small isolated pockets remained where the bands of elves could survive. Between the civil war and the cold both sides neared extinction. Eventually the winter made travel and attacks impossible and both sides were forced to put aside their war. Over 400 years later Mulcarn was killed and summer returned. The surviving generation of elves were able to travel again, and they have not forgotten the Umbrawood, thir ancient homeland, or the war that has not been settled. Now they meet again within the Umbrawood and this war must be played out to see who will control the elves in this new age.
