The capital of the Dominion of Malin, Caras Eldar is situated upon the north-west shores of Atlas, in the forested dales known as the Lofty Woods. The city acts as the seat of the High Court of Elvendom and was completed in 1646. Caras Eldar is known for its wealth of culture, its spectacular fusion of natural and stone architecture, and for its vast and diverse population; it is populated mostly by Elves, though many allied Men and Dwarves have also come to call the great metropolitan forest-city home. The Dominion's Court of Princes, led by the High Prince Belestram Sylvaeri, presides over the three united districts- Irrinor, Velunor, and Valleinor- which blend seamlessly within the high walls and beneath great leafy boughs. It is also home to several great architectural achievements, which include the great Court of Valleinor and the Greyharbour, which is one of the greatest seaports in the civilized world.

History

Construction

After the departure from the Isles of Axios in 1640, the joint armadas of the Elven fleet sailed west under a united banner, landing upon the north-west coast of the Continent of Atlas in 1641, after a year of travel. Plans by Princess Titania Hawksong were used in the construction of the city, and it was subdivided into three distinct districts. In quintessentially Elven fashion the walls were constructed in fusion with the existing forest, and most housing was raised among the branches of the elder trees.


Geography

Caras Eldar is located in the north-eastern corner of Atlas, in the broad forested lands which extend between the mountains and the sea.
