I wish Rayne were here more often.  Good sayings, but not really "elfy" in my ears.  I know Rayne was working hard to create a truly unique elf race, rather than a pointy eared human.  These sayings sound more human.

We really need a truly "elf" expert.  I miss you Rayne. cry  (though I'm quite sure she does not feel the same for me  rolleyes)

Saying: To meet Meanra's hiveling

Meaning: Meanra's hiveling showed Ciosa to the site where he was to found the capital of Avennoria. Means that someone has found the answer. Can be used positively as in "You must have met Meanra's hiveling! Well done!" or negatively, to imply someone cheated or had help on something when they shouldn't have. Also just used to mean a flash of inspiration.

Origin: Avennorian

Proverb/Saying: "To light the darkreign candle"
Meaning/Explanation: Used when a person has to work on something through the night, popularised by the architects of Ximax. Darkreign is, according to the Santharian way of reckoning time, the darkest part of the Caelereth day, when Injera is somewhere on the other side of the disc, and the dark is in full reign. It is believed to have originated with the Centoraurian humans.
Origin: Human (Centoraurian)
