The capital of the The Silver State of Haelun'or, Lareh'thilln was the home of High Elves in Arcas. It sits high atop a mountain peak in the north-western extremity of civilization, the marble statue of Larihei watchfully peering over the rest of Arcas. In common, it's name is translated as the 'Silver Mountain'. The city housed a majoritarily high elven population and was known for it's strict policies regarding outsiders, few non-High Elves have, however, managed to earn their way into the safe haven through ardeous work.

History

Construction

Upon the High Elves' arrival into Arcas, the peoples found themselves overlooking a plateau that rose above the rest of the realm and touched the skies. They deemed it perfect for their isolationist nature and considering it a safe spot to be house their expansive knowledge. Names which stood out upon building the first iterations of the then small settlement were Ardryll Morvael, Dimaethor Elervathar and Nerithil Valarieth.

Geography

The High Elven capital marks several records when it comes to it's location, being the northern extremity of civilization and the highest altitude at which civilization blooms. The city is sorrounded by the Silver Forest, a deep taiga to which the mali'thill have laid claim, to the north and west however are located the only mountains in the land of Arcas.
