Elwynn prevails!, sometimes translated to Elwynn endures!, is the national motto of Elwynn. Its Elw form is Еӆуенууеқ наазамнизор! (Elluenuueq naazamnizor!; pronounced /əɬuənuːəχ naːzaɴizoʁ/). The literal translation is "Elwynn is without an end" with connotations of suffering, honour and endurance.
