The Colinesti Elves were what the Elves of Ansalon collectively called themselves before they separated into nationalities and subraces: Silvanesti elves, Kagonesti elves, Qualinesti elves, Dimernesti elves, and Dargonesti elves. Colinesti means "people of the morning" in the Elvish Language. The term is hardly used in the modern age, but can be found in ancient texts.
