Elven Greeting Ritual

The Elven Greeting Ritual is the ritual in which any Elf does when they first meet another Elf, be it Moorelf or Smoorelf.

Details
The Ritual starts after two Elves, either Moorelf or Smoorelf, meet each other for the first time.

The older Elf gives the younger Elf a gift, it can be anything, ranging from a rose to an enchanted bow.

The younger Elf then gives the older Elf a gift back, ranging from a daffodil to a Bottle of Enchanting.

The Elves then either engage in a friendly conversation or go back to what they were doing.

Not doing the ritual is considered a sign of disrespect by all Elven kind.

History
Not much is known about the Elven Greeting Ritual's history, all that has been written down in Elven history about it is that it originated somewhere within the Holes of Smerono when the miners traded their minerals to other miners.

From then on, it has stuck with Elven Culture, even after they emerged to the Surface of the Overworld.
