Leuthilspar
This greatest of surviving elven cities lies on the east coast of Evermeet, nestled like an ancient gem amid the lush greenery of her trees. Situated at the mouth of the River Ardullith, Leuthilspar's skyline feature delicate towers of glass and alabaster, domes of precious stones and metals, streets paved in living rock or crystal, vast mansions literally grown from the very earth and composed of growing trees and plants, and many other wonders unseen anywhere else in the Forgotten Realms.
While it is a considerably smaller settlement, Leuthilspar rivals the greatness and beauty of even legendary Myth Drannor, the fabled lost city of the Elven Court. Here, all that is best in elven civilization remains to grow and prosper under the watchful eye of Queen Amlaruil, who dwells in seclusion in the gleaming white palace above the city.
Most of the city's structures are built using elven magic to literally grow buildings from the ground, transforming natural materials into seamless, incredibly strong constructs subdivided into rooms, hallways, and courtyards. Wooden buildings are roofed with magically growing bark or leaves. Stone structures are even more picturesque and graceful than their human-built counterparts, but are even stronger because they are effectively crafted from a single piece of stone.
Crystalline materials and precious stones are used as roofing materials on many noble houses, making the entire city glitter in the sun with a gem-like quality. Crystal and other gem-like substances also pave many of the streets.
As the home of Queen Amlaruil and the capital city of Evermeet, Leuthilspar is considered the very heart of the elven realm. This city, more than any other place, is the Tel'Quessir's last refuge, a stronghold against the world. No elf will even abandon Leuthilspar and it is an unspoken belief that if Leuthilspar ever falls, the elves of Toril have finally passed away.
