Overview
Elezen are tall, slender and long-limbed, living longer than Hyur. Former conflict between the peoples eventually gave way to peace.
Elezen names use French-like phonetics. Wildwood and Duskwight surnames diverged during hostility; Duskwight separation is associated with Gridania's founding.
Hyuran historians propose shared origins from naming similarities; Elezen historians deny a blood relationship. This remains an in-world dispute.
