Álfheim

Álfheim (アルフヘイム) was one of the nine worlds of YGGDRASIL.
== Background ==
The World Tree YGGDRASIL had countless leaves, but then a gigantic monster appeared which devoured these leaves, causing them to fall one after the other until only nine were left. These nine leaves were the previous incarnations of the Nine Worlds, particularly Álfheim. However, the leaf-eating monster continued its advance to the point where it seeks to devour the leaf representing Álfheim. This was the backstory upon which the players adventured into the world of Álfheim in order to protect it.Overlord Volume 03 Chapter 4: Before the Death Match
Álfheim was one of the realms where many players of the humanoid and demi-human races mainly resided in. By entering Álfheim, players of the heteromorphic races are known to have disadvantages placed on them when faced by non-heteromorphic players.
The world was described to be ridiculously huge, and there were many places within it which were difficult to explore. For instance, there were many areas which required the use of special equipment along with a proper strategy and the determination in order to delve into its hard-to-find dungeons that drop valuable Data Crystals.Overlord Blu-ray 04 Special: Prologue (1st Half)
