Nevaehlen
	Nevaehlen, home to the Wood Elves and Father Circle, sits in the Heaven's Peak mountain range to the West, part of mainland Aevos. The village was settled in the ruins of Talar'nor by the surviving Nevaehlii of the Silver Subjugation, led by Dyonne Alusa. This move allowed the Wood Elves to not only restore the lands from the lingering voidal blight, but to also reforge their culture and perspective; seeking to make amends with the cities of their elven brethren. Their military, the Halerir’elame, emerged from an informal citizens-militia, restructured to protect their way of life. Key leaders include Dyonne Alusa, Nalinor Caerme'onn, Gul'ash, and Yra'lissa. Nevaehlen began to thrive once more in its unrestrained status, reconnecting with the kin they had lost from prior reigns. • Current Leader: Dyonne Alusa • Peak Times  The Vale contains both GMT and European players, though the peak hour is typically around 5pm EST when the remainder of the EST community is active.
Current Leadership	List of Leaders in Nevaehlen Matriarch Dyonne Alusa ~ The Matriarch is the voice and head of her kin and culture. Those who hold this position are typically at the forefront of defense, fighting for their family and values. Naturally, the Matriarch is one to restore and preserve the Wood Elven ways through teaching, guiding, and walking the path themselves. Head Steward Yra'lissa ~ Working in tandem with the rest of those on the concord, the Head Steward oversees trials of the village for new residents. They possess organization skills, and are most importantly driven to welcome new, dutiful kin to the rest of the fold. Valeseer Nalinor Caerme'onn ~ The Valeseer is the leader of those pledged to the defense of the village, guiding the efforts of the military. Wild Chiefs Gul'ash and Isurus ~ The triumvirate of Wild Chiefs serve as cultural elders and leaders for the village, advising the leadership when necessary and ensuring the teachings of their faith are not lost.
Military	The Wood Elves of Nevaehlen are all initiated into the Halerir’elame, Those Pledged to the Forest. The arrival to Almaris had been a trying time for the Mali’ame and their ability to unite and fight against greater forces. T
Seeds	Mali’ame seeds are the ancient families of the Wood Elves. Each of these tribes carry with them a unique cultural identity. Many bear sacred markings, known as Ilmyumier, which is a way of visually upholding the values of an individual, or of the tribe itself. Each Seed has a chieftain who is responsible for guiding those that have become part of their family, or wish to take their trials. Some find their identity as hunters, others as crafters, and others still - sticking true to the nomadic nature of the Mali’ame - are wanderers • Seeds of the Vale: Alusa, Caerme'onn, Aurë'naerï, Sirame, Terin •
Religion	In the Nevaehlen village, Wood Elves uphold the Wild Faith of the Mani (Elnarnsae’ame), and Aspectism, centered on nature, deities, and rites of passage. These beliefs, rooted in their forefather Malin's teachings, treat forest gods and spirits as intrinsic to daily life. The Aspects include Cernnunos of the Hunt, embodying survival and chaos, and Cerridwen of the Harvest, representing life, nurturing, and emphasising nature's evolving cycles. Mani, the wild animal spirits, serve as protectors and representatives of fauna. The Nevaehlii make offerings to specific Mani and the Aspects, and often have patron Mani they devote themselves to in prayer and worship.
