Youth Faction

Youth Faction are a group dark elves in an unnamed dark elf village.

Background
The faction is composed of young dark elves that hold belief in ability supremacism. Their principle belief stems from living in the Great Forest of Evasha, a harsh and dangerous environment where they believed that the only way to survive was to yield to those who possessed superior abilities. Due to this, they were dark elves that opposed the elders' respect for convention and tradition.

Since the current long-lived elders did not possess any outstanding ability, the Youth Faction called for them to relinquish their leadership roles, as they question why they should follow the elders of inferiority when they can be succeeded by several members of the younger generation who were by far superior to them.

So far the tension between the Council of Elders and Youth Faction had not developed into total conflict, due to the youth respecting four people of the village: Master of the Hunt Apple, Blueberry Egnia, the Chief Pharmacist and Rite Master-who did not wish to oppose the elders. Thus the division between those who supported the elders and the Youth Faction was kept at a passive aggressive stance.

However the status quo would be interrupted by the arrival of visitors from beyond the forest.

The Half Elf God-kin Arc
and The Half Elf God-kin II Arc During the preparations to countering a possible attack by a ankyloursus, one of the zealots of the faction, Plum Ganen rather than allowing the elders make the decision to warn the neighboring villages, suggested to the rangers in presenting all their opinions to the council, as a way to win an argument over them. He was scolded by Apple as what he proposed was to subtly undermine the authority of the elders. Before an argument could be ensued, Blueberry Egnia, reminded everyone of the current threat to the village, bringing everyone back under calmer heads.

Later after Aura Bella Fiora arrived and defeated the Ankyloursus Lord, her unmatched ability as a ranger and hunter, embolden the many members of the Youth Faction. Her existence served as validation to their principles. Since her arrival, nearly all the members of the faction, like Plum Ganen had become her followers. Ganen especially became more outspoken in his criticism towards the elders.

Strength
In the village it is unknown how many members belong to the faction, though it was hinted that the movement existed in other villages.

Trivia

 * When Blueberry was asked by Apple if he could perhaps assume leadership to pacify the younger members, Blueberry believed it would set a bad precedent, and spread to other villages if they caught wind of what he did. Others would follow suit to change their leadership, which could lead to an upheaval of dark elf society,
