Nebula Forest

Nebula Forest is the home for Elves

## History

The Nebula Forest borders the northern boundary of the Sumahya Union from the southern to the central part of the continent through a buffer zone. In terms of its location relative to Arcazam, it is just across the land of the Cremazzone Empire.

Basically, elves do not get involved with other races. In particular, only elves were allowed to enter the Nebula Forest, their former homeland. The Nebula Forest was originally created by the spirits that dwelled in the Great Tree that stood at the center of the forest. Elves made a contract with the spirits of the Great Tree in ancient times, and have coexisted with them for thousands of years since then. The forest's defenses, protected by the elves, who have an extremely high affinity with spirits, combined with the spirits of the Great Tree, can truly be called an iron wall.

Furthermore, Nebula forest is always shrouded in thick fog, and only elves who can communicate with spirits can reside in it. Therefore, even during the Great Invasion, the elves did not heed the warnings of other races and did not accept help from them because it was their sanctuary as it has always been.

The other nations also believed that the Nebula Forest would be able to withstand the invasion of the demonic beasts for half a year.But, the Nebula Forest fell just within a week or so.However, the forest of elves fell earlier than expected. The reason seemed to be that the Great Tree, the heart of the forest, was attacked by demonic beasts that came out of nowhere, and the "High Elves" who could establish communication with the Great Tree were annihilated.

After the fall of the Nebula Forest, the monsters invaded the neighboring countries, which had not yet finished their defense preparations, and caused them to collapse as well. Naturally, the refugees who had warned the elves beforehand were among them, and many were killed.

Of course, a country's inadequate defense system is the responsibility of its government. But those who lost their families and hometowns didn't care. Moreover, after the fall of the Nebula Forest, the speed of the demonic beast invasion increased, and many countries collapsed as a result. The early fall of Nebula Forest. This confusion created further chaos and triggered the chain reaction collapse of many countries. Although consequential, this decisively worsened the standing of the elves. After the Great Invasion, the surviving elves fled to territories within the current Sumahya Union, but many in the Union still harbor animosity toward the elves because they ignored reinforcements and warnings from other races.

Operation Fructus was the greatest counterattack operation of mankind, which took place over a duration of four years beginning right after the Great Invasion. However, it was not possible to recapture all the territories occupied by the monsters, and this operation has now been postponed indefinitely in the middle of the fifth stage due to the exhaustion of the various countries. The recapture of territories occupied by demonic beasts after the Great Invasion was stopped right near the Nebula Forest.

The damage Elves suffered in the Great Invasion was severe. The fall of the Nebula Forest caused them to lose much of the knowledge and experience they had accumulated over the years.
