Description

Eons ago, dark elves emerged from the elven race that lived   
within the Realms' valley. Shortly thereafter, the elves found 
themselves in great distress - torn between those following a  
path of chaos, and those maintaining a life of righteousness.  
A great, painful war broke out and scattered destruction over  
the centuries. Magicks of immense power flew back and forth as 
each alignment fended for themselves, and many a brethren      
slain. The valley was left in turmoil, drenched in the flesh   
and blood of the elven kind.                                   
                                                             
In the end, the good had prevailed. The dark elves were forced 
from the valley's surface and driven deep underground, where   
they created a new civilization - bleak, lightless caverns and 
tunnels of the underworld. After a prolonged amount of time    
shielding themselves from the natural light of the world,      
their skin became black as night, hair silver as the moon, and 
eyes red like the raging fire burning within their souls. The  
drow were born, filling their days with havoc and station      
within the city in which they were forced into...the city that 
they had created...the City of Iniquity. 

Area Notes

This is the Drow race hometown. Nothing of interest on the leveling side of things. Alternate route to the hometown is to tell the ghost of Tagetarle, "I seek the darkness of my home" (with no period). You can also say "Darkhaven" at the Hellhound to be sent back to Darkhaven Square.
