History
A study of Toloira (Island of Eternity) by Alvin Shr'ug (translated from elvish):
The island that is called by the Elves "Toloira" (which means "The Island of Eternity") has a rich source of minerals, gems, plants and animals. It is no wonder when the first elf landed on this island his breath was taking and he stayed there.
If you walk through the Island there are a lot of rare plants and creatures around. In the middle of the Island there is a big crystal that has a strange bright glow around it. After a long study it seems like the crystal wasn't always there when the Island was formed, but somehow it came there - almost as if it fell from the sky.
More study of the ground it indicates that the ground was not always as fertile as it is now. At the moment the crystal came on the Island the ground seemed to grow richer.
A lot of elves heard about an Island, a paradise on earth and started looking for Toloira. Some indeed found it.. some got lost.. The elves who found it remained on the island and built a wondrous city there.
The crystal on the island seems to give off a strange kind of power. Wizards, sorcerers and more scientist are still debating why the land is so rich, what the influence of the crystal is and where the crystal came from.

Religion
The Elves of the Old world believed in a One True Divine entity that encompassed everything. Since being pulled from their home and landing on Arkaz they have lost touch with that entity. Some of the older Elves still worship the old god, some have lost their faith. Since most have a great respect for nature still they abhor things unnatural, necromantic, and negative energies.
The Great Cataclysm
This is what the Elves call the time period they were ripped from their homeworld. As they were ripped from their homeworld the veils between the planes were torn and creatures from the other planes leaked into that of the Elves. The Elves had to defend themselves against this invasion and many were lost before they finally rested on Arkaz. This was before their discovery of Toloira.
