Arborlon

Arborlon is the capital city of the Elves in the fictional Shannara series of novels by Terry Brooks. In the Original Shannara Trilogy, the first three books, Arborlon is located in the Westland of The Four Lands. In The Elfstones of Shannara, the defense of Arborlon is one of the central plot lines. Arborlon is not visited again until The Elf Queen of Shannara, where it is discovered that the Elves moved the entire city from the Four Lands to an island off the west coast by the use of a magical stone known as the Loden. Arborlon is the only city of Elves that Brooks has described in detail, but there is another city of Elves in the Westland known as Wing Hove. These Elves consider themselves a separate people from the Elves of Arborlon, although their ancestors originated from Arborlon.
