Hey Ed! I was wondering if elves in FR had different words for love the same way the Greeks did: …Phileo, Eros, Ludus, Agape, Pragma, and Philautia. Do they express their love verbally in different ways, or are they like English that has only one "love" word?— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) November 4, 2021

The elves of the Realms express love in singing love songs to each other, in love poetry (both public and private), and in ballads of praise for an individual one adores. There are also erotic dances.
