Elwynnese Commons

Elwynnese Commons is the cultural term for certain lore, literature, movies, tv-series, tales, stage plays, and radio broadcasts which have been chosen - or are made - with the objective to establish an over-arching Elwynnese culture. There are disseminated through various media, including the Elwnet.

The Book of Orchids

The Book of the Orchids, also known as the Book of Orchids, is a very important piece of Elwynnese cultural lore which originates in Treesia and was written by Sagart Siskind of the Treesian Unorthodox Church. It is a collection of narratives which detail the Creation of the Universe and the History of the World focusing, aside from some mention of Treesian and Micran heroes, on the Treesian Gods and other supernatural beings of the Treesian Unorthodox faith. In Elw, the book is called Ivor Rellenai; in Farewellish, the name of the book is Vitliljobook; and in Froyalanish and Wintergleamish, the book is known as Vitliljobók.

In the Flower of the North, the Book of the Orchids is nowadays universally considered by any and all members of the Elwynnese Nation to be authentically and eternally Elwynnese – in spite of there being no shortage of evidence to the contrary. It is one of the ancient writings which provides the Elwynnese Nation with a common, overarching culture for the quite disparate country that the Jewel of Many Facets is, and therefore unquestionably an inherent part of the Elwynnese Commons.

Specifically the series focuses on the frustrations of Daniel Simrani-Kalirion in trying to rule the Elwynnese Union whilst serving, however nominally, the errant and wandering Prince Nathaniel.

Tuuler and Björka in the 25th Century

Tuuler and Björka in the 25th Century is a TV series about Tuuler Kalir and Björka Hnossdóttir who have both, due to a freak time mishap, ended up in 25th Century Elwynn - a blasted wilderness and wasteland infested with Zombots, revenants and myriad mutated abmoninations, where the human population, outside of a few utopian cities ruled by the perpetually naive Congress of Rics, has dwindled away in the face of a nameless and unspoken catastrophe.

Bravely, the intrepid duo attempt to shake the degenerate heirs of humanity out of their languid fatalist torpor and to revive in them a love of the (silent and forgotten) old gods and a will to once more assert the long vanished human supremacy over Micras.

For a story about two essentially Froyalanish folk-heroines, the show has proved remarkably popular amongst the Babkhi, Elw and Norse communities. There is perhaps a feeling that the drama, ostensibly a shallow science-fiction fantasy, is in some way prescient regarding the potential dangers faced by humanity as a consequence of the changes manifest in Lichbrook and Minarboria.
