| '''The Sylvanic Fellowship''' is a [[:category:houses|House]] originally founded in 329 AF as the Sylvans [[:category:guilds|guild]], a fusion between [[The Ancient Circle of Druids|Druids]] and [[:category:classes|Magi]]. Though the relationship between Nature and the Elements may be somewhat apparent to others, few, if any, delve into the deeper meanings and ultimate effects of that connection as the Sylvans strive to do.

| Like their forestal brethren, the [[The Ancient Circle of Druids|Druids]] and [[Sentinels of Nature|Sentinels]], the Sylvans make Nature their priority in all things, and dedicate ourselves to the protection and preservation of such, knowing that it is Nature that sustains and succors all through their lives. We also recognise that even Nature has a root and a purpose, as do all things in existence; thus they strive to learn and understand the causes, effects, and meanings hidden within everything that exists.

|
| As a [[help:houses|House]], the Sylvans have evolved from humble Druid/Magi beginnings into a unique entity all their own - strong, proud, scholarly, and wise. They do not tolerate the abuse of Nature, or the abuse of one another. We strive to expand their knowledge to the very boundaries of the world and beyond. Though fierce if provoked, they prefer to exist peacefully with others, not indulging in selfishness or greed, but with respect for all, and the understanding that we are all connected, by the Elements that form us, and the Nature that nourishes us.

They also recognized that even Nature had a root and a purpose, as do all things in existence; thus they strived to learn and understand the causes, effects, and meanings hidden within everything that existed. |

| == History ==
| | Around the Year 678AF, the Ventos Allegos, a minion of Lady [[Lorielan]], destroyed all the Icons ending with the fall of the the [[Stag Crown]]. When the Sentinels Icon fell the Ventos Allegos travelled trough the Shadow Icon to the Eastern Ithmia. With the presence of Ventos Allegos being to much for the forest and Eleusis, the trees and woods began to become distorted. Awaken from her slumber by the arrival of the Ventos Allegos, Lady Artemis along with Lady Gaia combined their powers to rejuvenate the forest and removed the Ventos Allegos. With the surge of Natural energy, the trees and plants began to heal along with the trees of the the Three Great Forestal Houses, of which they then became no more. |

| 333 AF Constant exterminations by Dalamar and other Mhaldorians cause a constant threat to the forest. An herb ban on [[Mhaldor]] is brought into effect from both the Sylvans and the Sentinels, and later the Druids and [[Oakstone]].
