Book Text:
High Elves are often seen as snooty and aloof by other races. They are also perceived as beautiful and strong-willed. These volumes explore the truth of these perceptions, which appear to have remained constant throughout the ages. The cities, art, weapons, armor and even the animals they domesticate
| share this same aloof beauty. These books examine that beauty along with the underlying strength that is seen in all facets of Koada'Dal life, but focuses primarily on the symbols, styles and colors that represent them. Specifically, it examines the use of symbols and insignia on armor. The
|
| author finds these symbols in all forms of architecture, art and religious symbols, including sketches and descriptions of things thought long lost to time.
This volume focuses on the most ancient symbols of Koada'Dal society. It describes or has sketches
| of symbols that pre-date the destruction of the Eldarr Forest, symbols thought long forgotten. It unfurls ancient battle standards, reproduces military insignia and describes murals from long destroyed churches. As you read through this volume you are reminded of the power of the past, of the
|
| legends that built your society. You feel them watching over you and accepting who you are. These images give you strength and confidence in yourself and your people.
Among the pages of discussion about these symbols is a pattern. This pattern combines ancient
| symbols with the symbols discussed in earlier volumes to produce a symbol that holds all of the history of the High Elves. You know that you will be able to reproduce this pattern many times before the book becomes worn and you must replace it.
To create a pattern for
|
| tailoring armor templates based on these patterns you will need this book, a large bottle of ink, a roll of superb vellum, a quill and a compacted backpack to hold the patterns you will make. You'll also need a book binding to do the work.
