=The Balance of Life and Death=
The symbology behind Eltya may embody the positive qualities of life, one has to bear in mind that life wouldn't be life without death. It would simply be a mere existence otherwise. This duality is something that the Eltyain know well of, the balance of which must be preserved in order for not just the Forest, but for the whole world to continue. It is already known that the Stags maintain the circulation of souls between Eltya's flame and the World Itself, as well as the fact that the Stags are also dispatched to deal with areas of the Forest in which there is an unnatural spread of death and disease as well as an uncanny proliferation of life. The Forest has others alongside the Stags which help in this daunting task, including the '''Pale Maws''' which attract and prey on the particularly ambitious folk wishing to exploit the Forest for their personal gain. The aquatic '''Echoes''' of Alboniset Lake do much the same with those wishing to disrupt the fragile marsh which surrounds it. There are also stories of the colossal '''Forest Harvester''' which maintains the limited growth of the Forest itself, preventing it from losing too much territory, but also from gaining too much.
