Dalish Elves of the Wending Woods

The elves are a clan that migrated from Nevarra due to the war occuring there with Orlais. Their journey through Fereldan began when they arrived on the shores of Redcliffe. The clan, then lead by Evarias, thought Redcliffe was abandoned, and so they attempted to inhabit the town, but were driven back by Arl Eamon and his knights. A battle ensued between the elves and knights of Redcliffe in the Hinterlands. The elves were defeated and Evarias was slain. The elves retreated to the Frostback Mountains, now lead by Evarias' first, Baoma. The clan began setting up camp, when they were again attacked, but this time by the dwarves of Orzammar. The conflict ended when the dwarves realized the elves were not trying to invade their city. Though it ended peacefully, Baoma had been killed the night before during the attack. The clan left the Frostback Mountains and was now being lead by their storyteller, Pik. The elves moved north-east where they soon discovered a forest untouched by any civilization. The began building a camp and a few days after they had finished, they met an elf named Velanna, who turned out to be a Grey Warden. They made her their Keeper and a few months later, another Grey Warden came to them and began recruiting some of their clan to become Grey Wardens. When their Keeper passed on, her daughter,Seranni took over and lead them to the city of Amaranthine. The clan began helping to rebuild the city. They became a major part of the city, even being allowed a spot in the Amaranthine courts.Seranni left the clan to journey to Vigils Keep. The clan was passed down to a City Elf named Salim, who took over as Keeper and created a statue of Evarias, the original Keeper of the clan, in the center of the city. Many people, including humans, ventured to see this new statue.
