Savah is the Mother of Memory and progenitor of the Sun Folk, founding the Sun Village thousands of years ago with her mother and three male elves, Yurek, Dreen and Maalvi. Regal and serene, Savah is the very soul of dignity, possessing gentle beauty and quiet wisdom. Savah longs for the time when elves and humans can live together in harmony. Savah never sleeps, but there are times when she withdraws to the astral plane, where she constantly searches for knowledge that will help other elves.

Savah has been mentor and teacher to Rayek, Suntop, and Ahdri. It is speculated that Savah considers Suntop to be her logical successor. "Savah's love for her own kind is unconditional and all-forgiving. She loves to teach. Even when a pupil such as Rayek goes off the path of right action, she will not blame or reject but merely attempt to redirect." [see The Big Elfquest Gatherum] Long ago, Savah was lifemated to Yurek. During the human's invasion, Savah was shot by one of the human invaders and was forced to leave the Sun Village. After the shards of the Palace were recovered, Savah and the Sun Folk were liberated from their underground refuge and decided to dwell in the Palace.

Before Leetah was born, Toorah (TOO-rah) was the only healer in the Sun Village. She had no magical healing powers but was good with salves and needles. Mother to both Leetah and Shenshen, lifemate to Sun-Toucher, Toorah was completely supportive of Leetah, advising her in gentle and subtle ways. She has a mother's protective bent but does not try to influence, just guide.

A delightfull lady, as settled in life as Leetah, and of a greater serenety. She is close to her two adult daughters, yet not above teasing them at times.  Toorah is also keenly aware of the purpose of the Sunvillage as a human free haven. Although she accepts her daughter Leetah's departure from the Sunvillage with as much grace as she can muster, it is clear she does not approve.

After the explosion of the volcano she acompanied the rest of the sunvillagers underground until the Wolfriders found them in the Palace. Now, She and her people live in the Palace that rests in the woods of the Wolfrider's forest. 

Shenshen is a flirt, a gossip, and Leetah's little sister - the latter only until Leetah was snatched away by Rayek and pulled into the future. Now, at least in terms of "days lived" Shenshen is much the elder, though she still appears to defer to Leetah as in the old days. Leetah's sister is light hearted without being empty-headed, and she continues to enjoy the company of men, just as Leetah did before Cutter's arrival. She to has a personal skill: that of mid-wifery, a gift appropriatly close to Leetah's healing. She relishes useing her gift, Just as Leetah enjoys healing or perhaps even more since she has few chances to employ it (Elves have very low birth rate) Sometimes antagonizing, sometimes teasing, almost always afectionate, Shen-Shen has had a rich relationship with her sister and is a major supporting charactor, representing perhaps, the Sunfolk at their most open and engaging.

Renowned for her birthing skills, Shenshen has assisted in the births of Suntop and Ember, Mender, and Tyleet. Always holding very definite ideas of how she thinks the world should work, Shenshen is easily annoyed when things don't conform to her view of the world.

Shenshen is a bit flighty but full of vivacity, never hesitating to speak her mind and only thinking about the consequences afterwards. Shenshen delights in simple pleasures, never fearing to make her emotions known. She never appears to be alone or without a willing mate. During the years of Leetah's disappearance, Shenshen filled the role of healer through the use of herbs and plants, most likely learning herb lore from Old Maggoty. After she accompanied Suntop on his travels in the Forevergreen Forest, She joined her group and the rest of the sunvillagers in the palace of the highones. She resides there now in the forest of the Wolfriders holt.

Rayek, whose name means "child of the rocks", had long been the chief hunter of the Sun Folk. Lifelong friends with Leetah, they spent nearly 600 years together before Cutter's arrival forever changed Rayek's world. After his failure in the Trial of the Hand, Head, and Heart, Rayek lost everything and left the Sun Village to find a place of his own. Restless and brooding, Rayek must be first in all things, or feel he was nothing. Rayek is not evil as Winnowill is evil, but rather narrow-focused in his quest to shape the world as he truly feels it should be. His overweening ego blinds him to others' true needs and wants.

The stabilizing influences in Rayek's life have been Savah, Ekuar, Venka, and Zhantee. Their loving support allowed him to face the pain he had caused others. The only thing that rivaled the Palace for Rayek's attention was Winnowill. No greater love could ever be demonstrated than that of Rayek's absorption of Winnowill's spirit to save both her and the World of Two Moons. Rayek could not risk Winnowill seizing control of the Palace. He now wanders the world with Ekuar, wearily fulfilling his job as both Winnowill's jail and jailer.

Ahdri was Savah's handmaiden, constantly seen at Savah's side. Her rockshaping ability first manifested while working alone near the Little Palace. She made it possible for her people to escape the human attack on Sorrow's End by burrowing underground. During this attack, Ahdri sacrificed herself to protect the Little Palace. When her lifemate, Windkin, discovered her, Ahdri appeared to have gone into the rock. Her spirit was all around him, but unreachable. Ahdri belonged there now, continuing to prevent humans from returning by continually making the rocks move and grow into barriers.

Later the trolls would find her and keep her to help them find jewels in the rocks. She would be forgoten bu them as well and left in a pit for Treestump and Clearbrook to find and rescue. She now lives with the Wolfriders.
