Her tale is that she was once a female elf in love with an Elven outcast while living in the house of her father, King Fealaduril. Not wanting a vagabond son-in-law and possible heir to his throne, the King gave her an alternative to stay in his house or leave and never to return. Isallinwe fled under the light of the moon into the forest to meet with her lover where they lived happily for many years watching over the animals and other residents of the wood.
After many years, Isallinwe grew curious of how her father was fairing and wished to return briefly home to see him. Her lover furious at her wanting to leave him, stayed in the wood, and waited for her return. During her absence, it is said that a beautiful dark female Drow appeared before him. He could not resist her temptations and fell deeply in love with her. Through trickery and manipulation she slowly twisted him to her will and when she was done with him she transformed him into a willow tree. Upon Isallinwe's return she found her lover in tree form and wept. No magic could bring him back and she wept for the rest of her days at his feet. She vowed never to leave the forest again. Elven legend says that when you see a silver-haired wolf howling in the deep forest - Isallinwe is nearby.
