Élantandis

Élantandis was an ancient elf who, according to elven lore, approximately 300 years before The Great Divide, ascended to god-hood in an event called The Enlightenment or The Enlightenment of Élantandis. It is believed that the year of The Great Divide would have been Élantandis' death year had he not become enlightened. Hence, The Great Divide was Eodth's way of grieving Élantandis would-be death. Others believe that The Great Divide was a calamity to accommodate the sadness that would have befallen Eodth had Élantandis died.
