Life in Aedrider was generally peaceful. For most elves, they could live their entire lives in the country free from experiencing conflict. Even crime was relatively low amongst the populace. Arguments were almost always verbal in nature and rarely escalated beyond that.
Such was the result of being a long-lived race. Each generation that passed on had centuries of knowledge that they shared with the others. This vast collection of knowledge that was eagerly shared between each other led to a rather harmonious environment in which elves thrived. At least, that's how it was in the deeper parts of elven territory.
Nerill grew up in a border village. All of her relatives were pure-blooded elves, but rather than move away from the borders, they stayed in their ancestral lands, tending to the fields. Life for Nerill and the other villagers was not such a dream as was told to her by her grandparents as fantastical bedtime stories.
