Celestial Elven Soldiery Lore
These soldiers are proficient in battle, They are many. NOT A HORDE!!. But still alot. The Celestial Elves are smart enough to know that they need a powerful army. And they have kept one. They go about and collect magical artifacts, they also have to escort them to the ships, then to the Flying Kingdom. Also these elves are devoutly devoted to Etheriel (the Celestial god) And Necromancy is a heresy to Etheriel, so these soldiers are often sent out to assess Necromantic activity and kill them or destroy their fortresses (This requires a hammer like strength to crush these fortresses). Trust me Teh-Ephy. The race I created have a powerful soldiery. These are not the weak hit and run hide in trees kind of elves. (they do that, but thats only one tactic in their arsenal) They are also quite capable of hand to hand battle charge combat.
Thus as a summary: Magical artifact/tome gathering = requires the "scalpel" of the Celestial Elven military
Crushing Necromantic threats and evil things that are within their domain (the area under and near the flying kingdom) = requires the "hammer" of the Celestial Elven forces. We often try to strike hard and fast. So that we uttery destroy the enemy without showing to much of our identity. Thus thats why there are myths and ledgends about us. But not real good facts about our existence other than...
"A wave of soldiers wrapped in starlight battered our fortress to the ground with magical fire. Like arrows the fire was, as it streaked across the battle field and broke our stone battlements. Then they charged at us and struck us down. It was as if the very gods sent their fury down upon our spirits."
...This wrapping of light is a spell that we use to hide our identity and inspire divine fear in our enemies, however, this spell only lasts so long, as you cannot hide an army in blinding light for very long. Thats why we strike as hard as we can as fast as we can. And if the light fades, We are exposed and the battle becomes truely serious. (This normally only happens when we fight a powerful enemy that requires a siege that lasts longer than what we intended) But these are usually rare.
AWWWWWWWWWWWZ
