Greetings, Weakling.

I do not claim to speak on behalf of Glomdoring, nor do I pretend to
have more power in my beloved Commune than I actually do, but I simply
couldn't resist replying to your post. Consider these my feelings, which
while I'm sure many are shared by the Commune, I will not speak for
them.

You ask us if anything matters. Of course, nothing matters but
Glomdoring. The Glomdoring is the most beautiful thing in the Basin, and
I live, breathe, kill, and die for the Glory of Crow and Glomdoring. You
speak of it as if it's diseased, but truly, it is the Serenwilde that is
diseased. Serenwilde sits and allows itself to be infested by the
envious light of the pale Moon which wishes nothing more than to know
our secrets of power and steal it away from our grasp so that you may
rise in power and control the Basin and fill it with nothing but
sickened trees. Yes, you are the sick one for believing there is any
beauty greater than the Glomdoring, and your trees are sick with
jealousy.

As for allying with a city that harms Nature... I wish to ask you where
you have the right to speak of such things. For, isn't it the Serenwilde
who took Celest into its arms and allied with the city which released
the terrible Taint onto the lands? Are not all cities guilty of
destroying Nature, to build and expand and seek more power for their
greedy selves from unnatural sources?

Truthfully, I almost pity Magnagora for being fooled by the illusions of
the Aquamancers. They've had allies turn against them because the
cunning water-weavers desired allies for itself, so they wove illusions
of that which once sickened the lands, and Magnagora's blinded by this,
and has made the illusions their own. No matter how strong a distaste I
have for cities, I would much rather accept the aide of Magnagora and,
yes, even aide them in return, so long as it strengthened that which
truly matters: Glomdoring. Magnagora does the land far less harm than
Celest.

To address your concern as to Maeve, the Queen will come around. Once
she sees the truth as we in Glomdoring see it, she will gladly ally with
Glomdoring, and in her right mind, too, for she will know who the real
threat is.

Finally, to address your insults to Crow - Crow will make you bleed for
your arrogance, Kalodan, as He has already begun doing. Crow will drain
your body of your life over and over until you beg for more, and Crow
will show you His love by continuing his slaughter of you even as you
plead for no more. Crow is a Great Spirit of Nature, not something that
exists on the unnatural plane of Nil, and as such demands your respect
just as much as any other Great Spirit.

I realize that my words are not the words of the Commune, and as such,
are not binding. All are simply my opinion, as I strive to work for the
Glomdoring, and I know that the Ministers, the Shadow Court and the Dark
Marshall know better than I, so consider this a simple lecture from a
non-authorized teacher, Kalodan. If Serenwilde wishes to speak to
Glomdoring, the Serenwilde leaders should speak to Glomdoring leaders,
and all other talk is non-binding. Glomdoring will not listen to the
ravings of a simple Faeling such as yourself unless such a Faeling were
to be placed in a position to speak for his Commune.

Nothing matters but Glomdoring.
