Svartalfheim
Pantheon: Norse Mythology

Svartalfheim is the underground realm of the Svartalfar or Dark Elves. It is located deep below the ground of Midgard. These creatures were not allowed to come to the surface of the earth during daylight hours under penalty of being turned to stone. The counter part to the dark elves are the Light Elves who live in Alfheim.
