Okay, so if that's the case, then what was the homeland of the Aldmer anyway? More than likely yes, it is basically a shortened version of saying "the land of the Old Ehlnofey". If your asking what continent they came from, all life began on Tamriel.

So if all land began on Tamriel, does that include Atmora, Akavir, etc? Also, why are the Aldmer called Aldmer if they began on Tamriel? Where on Tamriel did they begin?
