The Cloister of the Esterbury Elves is a community dedicated to research in all arts, including visual, magic, bardic, and martial arts. The Esterbury elves maintain an extensive library and offer retreats for a select few. The cloister is a closed community that depends on the nearby town of Riverbend for food and laborers. In exchange for Riverbend’s support, the Esterbury elves provide protection.
