Oakstone Hating

Yay! Another Acci post.

(Bought to you by people who have no purpose posting everywhere)

I'd just like to bring to your attention a grave matter concerning
Oakstone and the protection it provides to Gaia's realm.

But first, to get it out of the way, when you're updating your herb
prices, try to actually look at the current market prices, instead of
what it was 50 years ago.

Now, as for my 'point'.

There is a certain plant that grows in the Sirrocian Mountains, well, it
used to. There are a total of 4 bushes of this plant, and, unfortunatly
for it, it does not provide any healing benefit for those who eat it.
(Or apply or smoke it.) Yes, I am talking about the poor innocent
blueberry, that has been harvested to extinction. And Oakstone, the
Custodian of Nature, has done nothing to prevent this, or, after the
fact, heal it.

Once, before my time, weed was harvested to extinction by Druids, and I
believe Gaia had to expend a grat amount of energy and essence to
restore it to us. Why then has Demeter not done the same for the
Blueberry? Is it not a part of Nature? Should it not suffer the same
protection as those herbs that can be used medicinally? Apparently not.

It seems to me, that in our time, Oakstone has grown as hypocritical as
the Church has been in the past, yet aside from Rosirine, no one seems
to really care. (And yes I know me talking about hypocrisy is infact
hypocritical.)

So, I aask you, if you are one of the lucky few to have a Blueberry
hidden away in your Rift, that you take it out, study it, eat it and
savour the sweet juices (though it may have dried out, depending on how
long you have had it), and remember a time when Blueberries grew free in
the mountains, carefree, unendangered and blissfully ignorant that the
laws of it's protector did not apply to it.

I salute your memory, brave, proud Blueberry, and hope that soon, when I
join you in the Sirrocians higher in the sky, we will have happier
times.
