The high ridge above Elderweald took your voice for three days before it gave you the first word of wind. You were not the first to climb it, but you were the first to listen that long. The elder trees watched, their roots humming with old air, as you knelt in the scree and learned to shape what moved through them.
Where the name comes from
Elderweald — Elder (the elder tree) + weald (forest).
