I still don't know anything about the races, a quick summary maybe I can dress up with pretty words?

Of course!:
Elves: Residents of Fyrdgard, very magic oriented people. Possess an artifact known as the Dragon's Orb, which contains the soul of the Ashen Drake. The acquiring of this artifact sparked the Descent of Jathygaer. They are believed to hail from deep caverns under what was formerly Mount Fyrdgard. They have a rich history and culture, and have historically been very visitor-friendly. The very long lived elves have established a haven for all kinds in Fyrdgard.
Humans: Originally made up of savage clans that inhabited the Nurthwyld, it is said that a small contingent of exiled Terrans sailed on the historic Tyrik's Ark to create a small fishing village. This village eventually grew into a town that offered refuge for future exiles and pilgrims who had come to seek the fabled Hearthland. These pilgrims eventually established the Order of the Hearth, establishing a Cathedral in the newly dubbed town of Tyrgard. They then anointed Tyrik as Tyr, King of Tyrgard. They have since built Tyragrd into a sprawling port city. Sadly, this city became the location of the great battle between Jathygaer the Ashen and the [i]Heroe Adelhird[/i] Difrael, wielder of Daerun. (Lifespan is 450 years, BTW. Same as dwarves and slightly under elves)
(More coming soon, hopefully this should get you started.)
