The settlement of Ker'nor housed The Enclave of Ker'nor, the Dark Elven state of the Dominion of Malin, and was located on the south-east of the isle of Tahn in the continent of Axios. Its neighboring state Laureh'lin lay to the north.
History
When the elves acquired land in Axios, and awarded their nation the name Dominion of Malin, part of the land was awarded to the dark elves, under the leadership of Dak'ir Des'nox. The land given was a hollow mountain with an opening on top, presumed to be an old inactive volcano by some. While under the Dominion of Malin, the town was able to house a multitude of dark elves, with the exception of the Warhawkes, which in Vailor had turned to become the enemies of the enclave by what some call an assassination attempt on Dak'ir. Bad relations continued between the two groups for many years, escalating to an attempted murder of Dak'ir's pregnant wife, which brought great momentary anger of the elves towards the Warhawke group, as children are precious to the elves. Peace was achieved later after the leadership passed from Dak'ir to his son, Jayce Des'nox, which then married with a Warhawke member. This prompted the group to join the enclave, with only a few members still barred from entrance.
The enclave helped the Dominion with their multiple wars, though with few numbers. After the imminent defeat of Oren was in sight, the Dominion of Malin ended their allience with Oren and became neutral, which included the enclave. The Warhawkes took this opportunity to get new land outside of the enclave, and did so, though now there are better terms between the two groups. Throughout the years, the town has been attacked by undead beings, yet this isn't an occurrence only in Ker'nor, more so on all the Dominion of Malin.
Construction
Homes were built inside the hollow mountain, into the stone itself. To get to them, wooden platforms were made from the small lake in the bottom, to the opening on top. A center lift was also implemented, to allow fast travelling around the various levels. A cave entrance into the hollow interior was used to make the gates into town, and another for the exit behind the town, where a small dock and farms were raised. Later on, festivity grounds were built just outside the main entrance.
Location events
The Dark elves have a culture which provides a lot of opportunity for festivities. Worshiping of ancestors was a general doing of the dark elves of Ker'nor, and many festivities about them have been done.
