The "Mène'teká" (Styrásh, lit. "Tales following Paradise") is - together with the "Cárpa'dosía" (the "Book of the Beginnings") one of the key books of elven mythology and belief in the Aviará, the Twelve Gods dreamed by the High Goddess Avá. The Mène'teká contains the tales of the beginnings of the elven civilization dominating over Caelereth, telling us of the rise and fall of the Empire of Fá'áv'cál'âr, and the development of the elves thereafter - the wars, the prophecies, the deep mysteries, the sacrificies and heroic deeds of this withdrawn race, long-lasting, but often barely understood.
