Evermeet is ruled over by Queen Amlaruil Moonflower, who rules from its capital city of Leuthilspar, and is home to many prominent elven houses, including the Durothils. Many have tried to invade it over the years, including the Red Wizards, the
Zhentarim , the drow of Faerûn, and variouspirate s of theSword Coast and the Trackless Sea.None of these attempts came close to bringing the island, with its many defenses including Spelljamming ships and dragons, down. When many of these forces allied under the leadership of the drow goddess
Lolth , the god Malar, and the traitorous gold elf Kymil Nimesin in 1371 DR, however, much of the island was laid to wasteFact|date=January 2008. However, the island kingdom was not conquered.In 1374 DR the Island Kingdom was assaulted yet again: Daemonfey, demonic elves who were imprisoned as a means of punishment for consorting with demons, raided Tower Reilloch, a tower of mages in Evermeet. They were after a piece of a legendary artifact that, when made whole, had the power to release the imprisoned army of the DaemonfeyWho|date=January 2008. While doing so they planted a loregem containing information that no Daemonfey could access, in order to trick the elves into unlocking it and handing them the information.
Evermeet unofficially sent an army to Faerun under the command of Lord Seiveril Miritar, a priest of
Corellon Larethian , to assist the elves ofEvereska and theHigh Forest in their fight against the Daemonfey. After successfully repelling the daemonfey in Evereska, Seiveril's army pursued their foe toCormanthyr .References
