Alfheim is the land of the light elves, one of the nine worlds on Yggdrasil.

Description (SCIENCE)
In Talia's village there are few quaint houses that looked like they belonged in a New England colonial village. Well, they would have if it weren’t for the large amounts of greenery growing on the architecture and the magical animals walking around on the streets. At first, the houses that they were passing by were much like Hálfdan’s. They were rather quaint, and in New England style. The only odd thing about them was that all of them had a tree somewhere attached to the house. For Hálfdan’s place, the tree was growing right in the center of the house, conjoined to a room that John had not gone into. Some of the houses that they were passing had the tree in a similar place, although some would have it on the very edge of the house, and some would even have it as the entryway into the house. However, as they went deeper into the center of the city, the trees got progressively larger and the portions that were house got progressively smaller. After a few blocks, the house portions disappeared entirely, becoming large, carved-out trees.One other thing John started to notice was that due to the larger and larger trees, the roads got progressively darker, as the canopy of leaves began to block out the sun. Despite this, John had no problems seeing where he was going. At first, this confused him, as he saw no street lamps or any other sources of light.
