The [[Scalar]] lived and frolicked during the day, while the [[Neylar]] sang and played under the stars. At some point deep within the lost history of the first age, these two people came together, and from them were born the [[Atani]], the first of the [[Ela'drin]] or "united people." While their progenitors has continued to live for a time, it had been believed that the scalar and neylar had disappeared from the world, or had only existed as myth. However, each has reemerged in the modern age, stripped of their memories and struggling to find their way in the new world.  The Scalar are the people of daylit sky, who followed their lady Cualur to Temnia in the days before the Blessed Age. They are a people of letters and poetry, and of high magic. The layered and subtle poetry of the Scalar was called _esh'ae_, which has led to the nickname "Shay" for the Sun Elves. The Scalar are also known to be called Solar, Bright, Gold or Sun Elves. Thought to have been extinct, the Scalar have resurfaced after a long hibernation .......  ## Physical Description  Scalar typically shorter than most Ael'vin, but stand taller than humans.
