The Oronthonian side already had to go through one paradigm shift with the advent of Saizan that merged all the formerly heretical and orthodox sects back under the umbrella of "one" over-arching method of meditation on Oronthon and his will. Will they be able to deal with the change to "Green" that everything is going through and still maintain their allegiance to Oronthon? In the short term the edict of Tree is good as it helps in the battle against the Chesnites, but ultimately will the be able to adapt? Tree has cut them off from their own god's servants, unless those servants agree to be come Tree's servants. They have even lost the main opposition point to their god in the Nameless Adversary's transit to Hummaz, now there is no Person for the Eschaton to focus on, nor a jailer for those who opposed the divine Oronthonian will. Wyrish wizards have had one paradigm shift to work through with the creation of the Clavgier and Enforcer. I'm not sure what the Clavgier just did, but I'm sure they'll be ok.Those of the Viridecence that seems to be sweeping the universe ARE one of the major forces of change taking place. They are subsuming many of the fallen servants of Oronthon, Nahael being the first, but with Tree enforcing its will across the planes, there will be many more shifts than have already taken place. The Chesnites are in an interesting situation, as they hadn't experienced their first real paradigm shift until Tree acted in the most recent post. I think they, in the long term, will be able to adapt better than the Oronthonian side as the viridescence to them would simply be another route to power and there are definitely ludjas who are more inclined to their bent who would be willing to help them adapt. Admittedly there is Yew in the heavens of Oronthon as Eadric saw when he visited briefly recently, and Yew would have as much an interest in helping the Oronthonians adapt as any other Ludja. I'm just trying to figure out what Oronthon is doing or thinking in allowing Tree to "steal" his servants and his adversary, wondering when Oronthon will flex his divine Will in this dynamic situation.</blockquote>
