In a childlike handwriting is written underneath:


But I don't want my tree removed. It grew there with Oldras blessings.

Mairead

Yes, we wouldn't want Drahkens and Dravish's stay to be uncomfortable.


F

Cowards.. you are going to kill Oldra-knows how many trees because a lich wants you to remove them?

What is happining to Trollsbane?

A signature was written, but the person wrote it with so much force that the paper is ripped and it can't be understood

Mairead,

My apologies. Dravish threatened the life of many common citizens should it not be removed. It was with a heavy heart that I did remove that tree. I have taken a seedling from the blessed tree. It shall be yours.

As for the rest of your concerns, I have taken it upon myself to assure that the situation be treated properly. Indeed, it is a great loss, and yet one that nature can withstand. Every tree that I have personally removed I have replanted elsewhere

Know that it is with a heavy heart that I have taken this task upon myself, but the spirits and life energies of these trees, which, frankly, due to a few of you, are bounteous now more than ever--the lands surrounding Trollsbane are truly a marvel of color with their many apple trees--will be respected. A great replanting effort has and will take place. Nature in it's way is circular and not one steady line like unto the souls of man.

Yours,
-Slasthulphus

Many will be attacked regardless, you are just delaying the inevitable and appeasing the foolish.


F

You think Dravish will not attack because you pulled trees down? He is not someone who hates trees, he hates all that is living...

DO not allow him furthur control, Moshran knows what he wants with the land...

And so I shall allow myself to bathe in the blood of innocents, merrily so? This sort of logic is not only incorrect but absurd. The trees are replanted. No harm was done--save the cutting of a blessed tree, but aren't the lives of mortals just as sacred?.

To think that every day I cut down trees that were planted in improper places and replace them as part of my duties and there were no complaints before.

All complaints further will be ignored, save any by Pendar, Mairead, or Oldra herself.

Yours,
Slasthulphus, Forester of Trollsbane

Oldra herself.. you insult her again? She seems to be complaining, fir trees are growing on land, and cherry trees have disappeared..

It is not the loss of trees, it is loss of principle

An angry elf

Really, and elf chiding a fairy on the principles of removing trees. How silly.

Donal Mason

Who are you referring to as a fairy? Respect Oldra, for she feeds and cloathes you...

An elf

It would be silly to say that I have insulted Oldra. I said that I would listen to her guidance, as well as Mairead's and Pendar's, but not yours. The cherry trees are gone because the carpenters have taken too many. As I have announced before, I have a supply of seedlings in case this very thing happens.

Worry not for me, elf, for I worry about you. So much wisdom stands in the Halls of Tol Vanima, and so much care and kindness and understanding. The elves are truly remarkable creatures, and I think that if one observes my form they'd realize how remarkable I find them. I guess it can be said I chose to be an elf.

However, the kindness and understanding of the Elders and citizens of that island have not left their mark on you. How dare you. Do you think I enjoyed cutting that tree? Why must you pester me so much? Have I not shed enough tears? Must I now shed blood for you, Hadrian?

How dare you.

I have spent my life in service to nature. Now I stand here with the same weaknesses you have, and yet I continue. I don't have time to criticize others--not even those who hack down my trees, time and again, with no regard. And yet you have time to criticize me? Aren't you among those who hack down the branches of those very trees for your livelihood? Perhaps it is time I question you.

Slasthulphus

Recent events have shown he comes to town and kills anyways. Keep up the good work ignorant one.


F

((Here we go again... this is RPG forum... Hadrian does not exist [well did], and is(well was) a human... also i didn't sign the message.. so that is inside information... please clean up thanks))

One should respect that which is given to us. This includes the overly abundant kindness of he who forests Troll's Bane. I can hardly argue that any of you would take on this difficult and often disheartening task.

Cain

Who kills who, F? You can't honestly mean me.

Dravish continues to kill within the realm of our town. It is believed he is truly a being without reason.

Cain

Dravish, you know, the guy you do anything for to stop him from killing.


F

Who has a place for the god of whine and beer?

Because there is no official temple in the city we need a place for our ministry. We dont want that the god of party could be angry with us.

So I mean a little tavern or the rooms of an winegrower.


with honestful greetings

Allersheim, Servant of the great Adron

This is seriously becoming more and more nonsensical by the moment.

I'll not have any more of the demands of fools. I'm just a Forester. I'm not a guard. I'm not the king of this realm. I'm not a deity. Go bother them!

Slasthulphus

Nice to see someone knows their proper role.

-Mr. K.

Anyone who believes those fairy tales about Dravish is a fool, I havent seen him and i avent seen him do anything. So as far as i'm concerned, you guys are destroying wild life for someone who is as real as santa clause. Not that i care if you guys took out the tree's, but the fact that you're doing it for no reason...well....makes you look like an idiot, and mabey you are. i just wanted to give you my opinion on this subject

Allen,

I have fought and been seriously hurt by Dravish, and seen his attempts on the lives of others. Just because you have not seen someone, or something, does not mean it cannot exist. If he did not exist, I would not have been shot twice by his arrows, or seen Shandariel's prayers to Sirani block his attempt to harm her.

I disagree with the removal of a tree planted in the name of Oldra, but if Dravish truly threatened the lives of townfolk, I would consider the action that was taken.

I am sorry this happened Mairead.

Brother Nymus Nottenfid
Squire of the Order of the White Flame

Excellent you fools, get used to obeying the will of the dark forces and that of the blood god. Maybe he will show you mercy...

Obey Dravish, and maybe he will not send you as slaves of the blood god too quickly.
