Unfortunately there is not much we know of Eire before the fall. It remains cloaked in legend, perhaps by divine will. There has been nothing, so far as I know, that was recovered after the fall and precious little that survives from the eight ships. So far as the public knows of course, there were only seven ships, and that is the way it should remain, at least for a while longer. It is as you say, possible that other ships survived, but to my knowledge, no evidence of others has been uncovered. And the eight led by St. Rhian traveled together...Dragons live a very long time, the exact lifespan is obviously unknown and would certainly very by species. But there are notations of dragons living longer than 1000 years. They are the longest lived creature that I have encountered. The Dragon defeated by St. Angus was a collassal red dragon, according to those with more dragon lore than I.   I am certain that Angus used the blade, Kestekken - Wrym Slayer, rather than Salixes blade, which would have been missing at that time.If the sunderred elves are accompanied by Dragons, then we have a very large task ahead of us indeed." he concludes thoughtfully.Callenthien"I would be delighted to make the acquaintence of a centaur. Assuming Monsignor Epaphros can spare me. Do you think he knows much herb lore?"MielerianSo far as you know, He is chillingly accurate in descriptions of size, tactics, and look of black dragons. As well as the bite of thier acid breath. After the incident with the bear, he is ice cold toward you as well.GalindenGalinden is grim as any dwarf, still he seems willing to answer your questions."The elves of the dimwood are proud, but poor. The dimwood does not support our way of life as the northern woods once did -I'm told. Still we get by and brook no interference from the lesser races. The queens court is beautiful and Majestic, set high in a tree, but our people have only small hovels. I'm told that once elven youth led merry lives, now we are trained in the grim art of war. Still, with the return of the tree to Bastion, there is a new hope that we can soon return to the northern woods and begin to prosper again. That is why the Queen has agreed to this mission, I suppose, she hopes to secure the Church's aid in that return. Speak with Lord Gaithys, he will know how you can best aid us."SalishaWhen you and only you can hear her she tells you."It is the symbol of St. Quentin, an older one. You are not at all versed in the nuances of the Church?""I know you and your companions, Randall of Alderweg. Your faces and your deeds. Then church stands in your debt. I do trust you, so far as I trust any elf on this mission. But I feel this all will be in vain. Elven arrogance has doomed us to 400 years of war and I believe we will get more response to our questions from stones than from Elven nobility.""It is good that you recognize me," she says, a smile appearing on her beautiful face. "You have more discernment than I would have guessed." She  giggles. "We have a mutual aquaintance, a mage of great power."Epaphros"My dear Randall. When we get to the elven woods tommorrow, you will be lauded as a hero before the elves. This is right and proper. They expect to meet you, and have been briefed as to your many accomplishments. My charge to you is this: keep your ears open, perhaps you may be told something that we may not officially be told. I expect to be able to get the Queen to give the information I need, namely the location and identity of the sundered elves. But it never hurts to have a second option. Elis Blessings to you. We shall not fail."</blockquote>
