Elfquest is a fantasy comic strip written by Richard & Wendy Pini, which began in 1978 and is still running today. It's a low-fantasy setting based on a primeval, Stone Age world known only as "the world of two moons", due to it having two moons (there's a shocker). As its title implies, it revolves around the trials and adventures of a tribe of elves called the Wolfriders - short, pointy-eared humanoids who more closely resemble the gnomes of Dungeons & Dragons, who use telepathic bonds with wolves to aid them in surviving in the wilderness. For generations, they have fought against the local tribe of savage humans, who believe the elves to be demons and seek to sacrifice them in order to earn the blessing of their fictitious deity, Gotara, whilst intermittently trading with the trolls - squat, grumpy, ugly underground-dwellers resembling somewhere between a nasty dwarf and a goblin.
When the humans start a fire that burns down the Wolfriders' forest home, they flee into the tunnels of the trolls, where they are subsequently tricked into entering a vast desert that lies beyond those same tunnels. Here, they encounter the Sun Folk; a peaceful, agrarian village of elves they had never knew existed, and into whose society they ultimately meld. After years of peace, the Wolfrider chief Cutter becomes consumed by curiosity, and begins an epic quest to learn if there are other elves in the world, which ultimately leads to revelations about the true origin of elves.
