El Forado (formerly known as Elfville) is a town in Dragon Quest IV. Located at the foot of Yggdrasil and surrounded by impassable mountains, it is home to the elves, and is only accessible with the balloon.

Story[]

The Hero and their party receive a treasure map from Conrad 'Ilton in Mintos, but the location marked on it is all but inaccessible on foot. After acquiring a hot-air balloon, the party can finally explore the area.

They discover the gigantic world tree, Yggdrasil, along with a village of elves at its base. Some of the elves mention hearing a voice calling for help from atop the tree, so the party set off to investigate. Upon reaching the upper canopy, they find an injured Zenithian woman, who requests help in returning home. The party agree, and she tells them that the Zenithian sword, needed for reaching Zenithia, is located nearby. After a brief search, the party find the legendary sword hidden amongst the leaves.
