The Elven Time of Madness and history before the High King...

From the fragmentary evidence I've been able to find (pottery shards, scraps of songs, pieces of scrolls, broken statues, fragments of temple friezes, torn sections of tapestries, and the like), most if not all of the Days of Madness took place on Adonar, though there are indications that some of it took place on Mithgar (the construction of Caer Lindor seems to herald from that time, though other evidence says it came after).

I believe that Aravan was just a callow youth when he was first thrust into those wars. There are hints that Silverleaf was on the other side. Too, it seems that Coron Eiron took part in those wars.

However, the evidence is so fragmentary that I cannot say for certain that any of the above is either true or false.

As to how long Elves were on Mithgar before the first High King... if some of the Madness took place on Mithgar, then it would have been tens of thousands of years if not hundreds.

Trying to assemble that knowledge is extremely difficult, given the derth of reliable evidence. Much of what I have deduced, I've had to rethink due to later findings. You might say that for the most part I am basing much on conjecture, imagination, and whim, along with a bit of logical fabrication (in those places where there are gaps in the evidence ... and there are many, many gaps). Nevertheless, I try to hew to good standards.

Crossings between the planes...

Mithgar/Adonar:
1) a ring of oaks in the Weiunwood
2) a circle of stones in Rell (Lianion)
3) a small mere in a small clearing in Darda Galion

Mithgar/Vadaria:
1) a silver birch grove on Rwn (destroyed at the end of the First Era)

Mithgar/Neddra:
1) Somewhere in Gron in the Gronfang Mountains near Claw Moor/the Iron Tower.

I also know of a four other crossings (which appear in SWBF), but I'll say nothing about them at this time.

As for the locations of all the crossings, I have yet to discover a map or scroll or other document showing where each one is located.
