But elves are elves wherever. I speak the word in my mother-tongue and you understand it as referring to the people who have pointed ears and whom the mortal death has no hold on. Even if the elven of Thedas have lost it, it will be returned to them. There is power in that, there is significance. And a lack of roads could mean many things, but I see the things that are accomplished by Craft in this world and can only come to the conclusion that they had no need of such things.
