That which is called Álfheim is one, where dwell the peoples called Light Elves [Ljósálfar]; but the Darƙ elf [döƙƙálfar] dwell down in the earth, and they are unliƙe in appearance, but by far more unliƙe in nature.

The names Vanir and Alfar (light elves) may have been either synonymous, since the expression "Aesir and Alfar" meant "all the gods", or designating a difference in status between the major fertility gods, the Vanir, and the minor ones, the elves.
The Van Freyr was the lord of lfheim (meaning "elvenhome"), the home of the light-elves, and he had as servants two elves: Byggvir and Beyla.
Like the Vanir the elves were associated with fertility and, in late fall, the "alfablt" (elven sacrifice) was performed in the homes.
