A warning to those who may break the "law of the wild"

Addressed to: Everyone
A warning to those who don't worship the forest. You are breaking the
"law of the wild" that Duiran enforces and you will be enemied. For
those of you who don't want forests to dominate all of Sapiences, you
are breaking the "law of the wild" and you will be enemied. Basically,
anyone who isn't out there embracing a tree and cursing civilization
should be enemied according to the latest logic of Duiran. Duiran
representatives will tell you they have no laws, only the 'law of the
wild' which apparently, everyone who doesn't agree with is breaking.
Or you can call this an abuse of their power. Your choice. Simply said,
the organization of Duiran, have enemied so many people in the past few
months, I'm at a loss to wonder how thats possible for an organization
that states no laws. I didn't overharvest, I didn't exterminate. I don't
have the power to do either. Though, I did laugh as their defenses did
little as someone else wiped out their plants.
Essentially, for anyone that doesn't agree with the forceful
transformation of Tasur'ke into a jungle, you should be enemied. I know
many don't agree with Tasur'ke becoming a city and I believe people have
assumed way too much. Yes, the clan of Citizens of Tasur'ke wishes to
have Tasur'ke flourish into a city I suppose you could say. Perhaps
expanision would occur one day but that is not an immediate plan. In
fact, the goals of Citizens of Tasur'ke were spurred with requests by
Constantine and his fellow villagers who wish to see their home
flourish. For those interested, Constantine was absolutely dismayed at
the sight of the totem pole and upset that this was to take place in his
village. I hope that Constantine finds the time soon to reinstate the
statements he has made to us.
The people opposing this claim they want nature, for it to be wild. Last
time I checked, natural and wild did not exactly coincide with force.
Yet, the order of Lord Haern with the backing of the Duiran council have
so generously decided to force the area of Tasur'ke to be "wild", and
have been gracious enough to protect the "law of the wild" with the city
defenses of Duiran, by enemying anyone who disagrees with this forceful
implementation of nature.
I'm not overly concerned about not being able to enter the forests,
despite the fact that traveling and any other kind of action that
doesn't take place on the highways or in the cities is impossible. I
suppose my shortcut through the woods it out of the question. I suppose
I am just ranting but essentially, it comes down to this. Duiran
controls at least 75% of the continent, not to mention the island. If
you disagree with what they want, you are banished to a mere fraction of
the world. What they want is to force a civilized village into a jungle,
an area of the "wild". I may be the only one who considers this
redundant and illogical. Its come down to a group of five people have
been given the power by Lord Haern to force the will of His order.
Enemying people for destruction of the current forest is understandable,
but enemying them because they don't want a civilized village forcefully
imposed into a forest? Essentially, we're watching a puppet show and I
hope everyone enjoys as every individual who thrives off the forest,
exerts all the power they can to dominate those that don't. So, a word
of advice: If you actually care to be able to move through the continent
without worry, go hug a tree today.
With all the respect I can muster,
