Got a quick question about the Elven retreat in Faerun: around what year (or how long ago) did the elves up-root their home in Cormanthor and move to Evermeet?
Thanks

According to the campaign notes my GM has provided me to run an elf character, "In 714 DR, the fall of Myth Drannor galvanized the surviving elven realms to action, and elves began to travel westward to Evermeet."
Also, later in the same paragraph, "By the Year of Moonfall (1344 DR), the Elven Retreat reached its peak. Persecuted by numerous savage races and equally put off by the invasive and often short-sighted expansion of humans, many elves simply decided to pick up and move. As a result, the elven presence on the mainland fell to the lowest levels since the arrival of the Tel-quessir twenty-five thousand years ago."
So, it looks like it took a while to get them mostly over to Evermeet. But then again, it takes elves a while to do most things...
Hope this helps -
-peace is for the conquered!-
The Retreat as of the New book series' The Last Mythal" (SP?) is over. The evles have begun what is being called 'The Return' after a war with the Demonfey ( A group of elves that have recently been released from prisons under old elven strongholds, that were mated with demons of different types and are all half fiends.)
Yeah, I read that too. I'm not too interested in that, more just getting the correct chronology for an adventure I'm putting together.
Thanks all.
