    "An ash I know stands
    Its name is Yggdrasil,
    A noble tree bathed in clear moisture.
    From there comes the dew that falls in the valleys.
    Standing evergreen above Urd’s Well."

    -Poetic Edda, translation from the poem, Völuspá
    Translation by Snorri Sturluson


"In Norse mythology Yggdrasil is the name of an enormous glistening ash tree that cradles the nine realms of the cosmos within its branches and roots, thereby connecting all things." "Within the branches and roots of the Norse tree, nine worlds or realms of the cosmos exist." The two kinds of elves live in two different worlds and are two different but similar beings. These are the light elves which live in Alfheim, who are bright beings, so bright they are hard to look upon it is said and the dark Elves, which live in "Svartalfheim, or Nidavellir in older texts." The physical appearance of the dark elves has changed and varies. They developed the name dwarves later on along with the shorter stature but originally they were of average height and black. It is said they turned black from living within the earth working the forges.
