What are elderlings?

The Almighty Raisin is an Elderling. For more info on Elderlings, lets hope Max replies.

Long before the events chronicled in the Farseer Trilogy, King Wisdom was bitterly besieged by raiders from the sea. Despite all attempts to repel them, it became apparent that the next summer of fair weather would see the fall of the House Farseer, and the Six Duchies. In desperation, Wisdom, a religious fanatic, resolved to spend the winter searching for the legendary Elderlings - whom some believed to be demi-gods. Little was known about the Elderlings, only that they resided in the Rain Wilds, beyond the tallest mountains of the Mountain Kingdom. Wisdom's quest was literally a last resort, a desperate gamble that paid off - somehow he found them. King Wisdom never returned to Buckkeep, but the Elderlings came to his daughter, the Princess Mindful, and offered their allegience to her. Then they proceeded to drive the raiders away from the coasts of the Six Duchies, allowing the re-establishment of peace, and trade. As the minstrels have it, they vowed that if ever they were needed, they would return - even from beyond the grave.

In case you are wondering that is not an official oddworld story of elderlings. I have no idea were ZombieX go that but it aint from oddworld.


For elderling info look at the official oddworld site. You should find plenty of info about the Almighty Raisin and elderlings.

ZombieX... It isn't official, so nobody believes it
