History
Lavu itself was considered home of the Lavek, a small tribe of elves that migrated from the north of Haven. It is believed the Lavek left their old villages due to tribal conflicts, seeing as the land was inhabited by hostile humans they decided to migrate to the heart of Haven, where they built a town over the oceanic surface. Lavu was unknown to the rest of Rathnir. It was discovered by a group of Selvan fishermen that were hunting a shark they saw nearby, since the Selvan people claimed the land as theirs they offered the Lavek protection, and in exchange Lavu would join Selva. Selva would later join Alfheim and Max Van Veelden would be sent to help running_jim with the town.

Mythology
In the Lavek mythology the sacred chief of the village is considered the incarnation of the sun, and the chief is considered the incarnation of the moon. It is believed that those who are peaceful and righteous recieve an eternal reward when they die, and they get sent to the Apolok, where the souls of righteouss men rest for eternity. Villagers also believe that northeast of Lavu a very dangerous creature resides, in a sea known as "the deepless", where the souls of those who lived with anger and fear travel after death, it is also considered that the deepless is a sanctuary to lost souls.
