Kor Vanaeth
Kor Vanaeth was a High Elf City in the Old World. [1a]
History
As tensions grew between the Elves and the Dwarfs, Princess Liandra left her father's seneschal to maintain the city whist she hunted the Druchii Sorceress whose dark magic she had seen at the scene of a attack on the Dwarfs. She would be gone for eight years and then as she closed in on her prey, she realised that her city was burning. [1a]
Snorri Halfhand had gathered an army of 40,000 warriors and marched on the city, defeated the much smaller army sent out to meet them in a three hour battle before advancing on the city itself. The remaining 8000 elf warriors, battered and bloody awaited the final assault. The walls and gate did not last long and the city was sacked and burned. [1b] Liandra arrived on her dragon Vranesh as the last building was being destroyed but did not attack, instead flying to Tor Alessi to warn them. [1c]
Altdorf would later be built on the same site. [2a]
