(A.K.A Willow Creek)
Winding Willow is the kingdom of the elves. A race of humanoids characterized by their pointed ears, cool-colored skin tones, and unusual hair colors. They also have magical abilities. Even during the time of the Great Empire, the Elves remained aloof from the other peoples. Now that they have their own kingdom, their seclusion mostly continues, though they have cordial relations with the other kingdoms. Perhaps, there will come a time when true alliances are formed.
The Royal family. They have ruled Winding Willows for centuries, perhaps even millennia. Their rule has always been firm, but fair. Always before, they had a policy of isolation. However, with Queen Ilyana, that may be coming to an end. As the world progresses, it will be harder for the elves to keep to themselves. Already, she has helped initiate several inter-kingdom programs, such as the police force.
