A realm of Tatyarin and a minority of Nelyarin Avar Elves, Tâliran (Av."Point of Morning" PQ."Tildêarin") was the only truly Elven land in the area of the Mûmakan since the total destruction of Dînsûlinor. In fact, a few refugees from that land later lived in Tâliran, the rest having abandoned Middle-earth entirely for the Undying Lands (only a very few) in the West, become Lingerers or being killed by the Court of Ardor. Ruled as it had been since its founding in the First Age by Tûranar, a lord of Tata's people from the East, Tâliran was a self-contained country, remaining aloof from local politics. As may be expected, the Elves inhabited the forested areas of Tâliran, constructing beautiful and elaborate homes in the branches of the huge trees, which often grew to heights exceeding 200'

abstract	A realm of Tatyarin and a minority of Nelyarin Avar Elves, Tâliran (Av."Point of Morning" PQ."Tildêarin") was the only truly Elven land in the area of the Mûmakan since the total destruction of Dînsûlinor. In fact, a few refugees from that land later lived in Tâliran, the rest having abandoned Middle-earth entirely for the Undying Lands (only a very few) in the West, become Lingerers or being killed by the Court of Ardor. Ruled as it had been since its founding in the First Age by Tûranar, a lord of Tata's people from the East, Tâliran was a self-contained country, remaining aloof from local politics. As may be expected, the Elves inhabited the forested areas of Tâliran, constructing beautiful and elaborate homes in the branches of the huge trees, which often grew to heights exceeding 200' (60m) the greatest example of which was Taurondë, the capital of the realm. Occasionally they allied themselves with Koronandë for they deemed the Kirani of that realm the most noble mortals in the region. In such cases the help was mostly subtle (e.g. elven advisors). Only in the direst of circumstances do the king marched to war. Even this subtle kind of help was atypical for Avari (and especially Tatyar) towards the sun-loving men, but the circumstances in this region were atypical (to say the least) as well. Early in the Second Age, a few Sindarin refugees from Menegroth (and the Havens of Sirion), unwilling to leave Middle-earth (and despising Noldorin "paternalism" in the Northwest) had migrated along the coasts southwards and eventually settled in Tâliran. These knew of the southern realm through Fëatur who wished the Guild of Elements to be strengthened. Soon they were given high ranks within the realm of the Kinn-lai who were pleased to delegate much of the burden of government to their more organized Elda brethren. This was only possible by the liberal attitude of Tûranar because a great part of his people did not like the Eldar very much. Indeed this act led some Kinn-lai to join the Court as had many of their cousins in the First Age. It was here that the majority of the users of "magic" in the area (as men called it) could be found, no doubt one of the major reasons that Tâliran had not been threatened by Tantûrak, or any other realm for that matter.
