Argwin,

It is amusing to read your post. You claim to be a professor, accusing our General of a lack of insight before showing your own missing sense. Let's start from the top.

First: Nature IS indeed required for all living things. Thank you for mentioning that, as it saves me from having to drive home all the various iterations of that statement. You already know!

Second: I think you are attempting to claim that the Village itself uses wooden buildings? The Village is not merely IN Nature, it is OF Nature. Living trees make up our home, not 'wooden buildings' in the sense that one would normally assume when hearing the phrase.

Third: Non-sequitur. How exactly does the idea that we didn't know about a world that no one even knew existed mean we've fallen as Guardians?

Fourth: Your claim here is that Ashtan has undue influence. Blatantly false. The burden of proof sits with you, but you have decided not to shoulder it, it appears.

In brief, I found only one part of your work really worth the time it took to read it.

Thanks so much for your time,
Guardian Nhakra
