Greetings, inhabitants of Sapience.

I, and many others, have been fearing for the forests of Sapience. I
will first speak about my fellow Druid's concerns. With this new work
from the three cities gathering territory, some of my fellow Druids have
been making frightful thoughts about having one of the cities come into
our grove and take it from us, essentially, away from Nature as it is.
I, myself am very concerned with this because if a Druid is enemied to a
city, and that city has captured his or her grove, then how can that
Druid tend to their grove? And how can we Druids think of these places
we choose to care for, in particular, be taken from Nature and made into
some territory worth defending against another city's greed for land?

This is to the leaders of the cities: Place thought into your actions,
don't make hasty, greedy decisions. If you decide your city needs wood,
you think, "Let's go capture a forest because we need wood." Well, you
haven't taken into consideration how the wildlife that lives there would
like it, or could even cope with your constant presence there. And you
haven't taken into consideration the previous "owners" of that land.
