->''"Even when I was at home, I was always wondering. Elves have an inherent aptitude for magic, far greater than humans. We lag behind on reproduction and environmental adaptability, but our long lives more than make up for it. So when the ancient wars were fought over domination of this world, why did we lose to [humans]? ... It was not a matter of preparedness—it was their ''attitudes'' that were lacking. Elves could not match humanity’s pursuit of sorcery, lacked the arrogance to trod roughshod over every principle and doctrine. They hesitated to even take a step in that direction! No wonder [[GodIsDead that fallen god]] loved them more than humans.\\
"Even the word ''Alp'' was once used by the [[{{Muggles}} ordinaries]] in one corner of the Union to describe elves in general. They believed we were child-snatching monsters. Was that the result of human propaganda? Or was that based on actual historical events? I don’t know the truth, nor do I care, but I loved the idea of an evil elf. As we are now, that notion is more a blessing than an insult.\\
"I am an outcast elf. Drawn to the immoral, beguiled by my desires, I was driven from my home and washed up at Kimberly. My parents lay together, two virtuous elves—yet the product was the devil you see before you. If there is any meaning to that, I’d call it a sign. A reminder that our species is trapped in a dead end, in need of guidance to the next evolution.\\
"[[MotiveRant Immorality and the profane are my calling! I am an Alp! Khiirgi ‘Avarice’ Albschuch!]]"''

'''Beyla''': I will speak. From birth, we are taught the Light is everything. The Elders say it its why we fight. But all of that? It's ''shit''. I am more than the hive. More than a soldier. Light Elves, Dark Elves... all Elves are the same! Stubborn. Brainless as moths, blinded by their Light. I know better now. I looked into the shadows, and there I found my people... My home. ...There. That is all I have to say. You can go away.

->'''Freya''': If I may ask... do you miss Alfheim?\\
'''Byggvir''': You mean do I miss the Light.\\
'''Freya''': Do you?\\
'''Byggvir''': The truth? I still feel its pull. You want nothing else when you are near it. And away from it, you're only biding time until you can drink again from the Light. But then again... the Light does not make good food. It doesn't play music or tell jokes or open your eyes to new things. It makes you run in place. The more I am away from it, the more I see it for what it really is. And I don't need it anymore.
