Ah, yes, your people.  They are not the only ones who live in the forest, and deserve no special protection.  The woods belong to all who appreciate them.6.  "Other" nature deities?  My dear, I am the nature deity.  I should never have let you out of the house, so to speak, my little sister.  But, as gnats exist in nature, you apparently exist to needle me.7.  What's the matter, dear Ehlonna--Not enough pointy-ears to satisfy your ego?  You must raid my followers?  Good luck, little one; I doubt those who follow the true god of nature will fall for the tricks of a pale shadow.  Those that do, are not worthy to follow me in the first place, and you are welcome to their minds--and all the "loyalty" they posses.As for my followers threatening the forest, well, dear sister, thank you for the best laugh I've had in centuries!  My following will continue their work, striving to achieve the natural balance that so many disrupt.8.  So, creatures of the woods are only to eat the rotten carcases of dead animals they stumble across?  A person who lives as one with forest, is accorded all rights of the natural creatures.  They must hunt to live--and the stronger animal may hunt them in return.9.  Your temples are a blight on my forests, but are no more noticeable than a mosquito bite on a giant.Well, dear sister, this chat has been fun.  But I must be off--I have to send some wolves to visit one of your temples!Obad-Hai[edit--silly deity forget to sign his work]</blockquote>
