Most elves will invoke Elgar'nan's name when they seek retribution. The Dalish believe that when Elgar'nan buried the sun in the abyss, some of its heat remained in the Earth and gave rise to hot springs in the Dales. They call the springs the Pools of the Sun and treat them as sacred. They also believe that the sun's lifeblood spilled in the battle with his son became the stars. The Dalish tell a story about how the dwarves fear the sun because of Elgar'nan.
