The bestial and floral race of the Silvara, who inhabit the unkempt jungles of the islands referred to as the [[Isles of Ealis]] by the mannish [[Kataletia]], live among this natural world in tribal communities just from without the gaze of the other inhabitants of the isles, their ability to become with nature being so great. Those few who have seen and recognized those of the Silvara have observed them to be nearly bestial in their attitude and temperament, with the animalistic beings of the surrounding area appearing to be very similar to these peoples. This is because of their mutual and shared descent from the spirits of nature, who, in times of long ago, had called those who would become the Silvara to live amongst this nature within the jungles. | The bestial and floral race of the Silvara, who inhabit the unkempt jungles of the islands referred to as the [[Isles of Ealis]] by the mannish [[Kataletia]], live among this natural world in tribal communities just from without the gaze of the other inhabitants of the isles, their ability to become one with nature being so great.

The Silvari race was known to have emerged from the worship of the trees, beasts, and other descendants of the original spirits of the natural and earthen, these spirits including the earth itself within its large swathe. Accordingly, this worship has given them the reputation as barbarians to the other elves, not having a caste system where those who descend from the lesser spirits are considered weaker. The spirits of nature, those same who descend from the earth goddess, are those who called them to the islands to be its protectors, as they had crystallized from the very same essences of which they would come to protect. These spirits of nature would grant the tribal peoples of the Silvara with great and boundless harvest not through agriculture, but simple foraging, being considered the children of this blessed nature and thus, being nurtured and sustained by its great powers of fruitfulness and life. | The Silvari race was known to have emerged from the worship of the trees, beasts, and other descendants of the original spirits of the natural and earthen, these spirits including the earth itself within its large swathe.
