It seems then that while you yourself can manage this process well enough, your divine realm cannot withstand the corruption... more and more it starts to resemble an elven ideal afterlife, given to nature and wild growth over the Menaji ideal. And the more dead elves that are taken in the worse it gets, leaving you with a troubling dilemma of whether to just surrender the realm to the elves as a faux-afterlife for them, or destroy it altogether...
<span class="mu-r">"Oh I'm so glad to have you here, all the way from Hewe! Dear me, I hope your travel wasn't difficult?"</span> you remark in a sweetly careless way, lounging lazily across your throne.
<span class="mu-b">"Difficult enough, no dragons at least but plenty of elves afar... maybe it better that we stay for some time, no profit to seeking danger."</span>
Sir Pembroke, one of the noble dragon slayers and leading noble of the new envoy group from Hewe. A successful endeavor that you sent some of your own people with the first group, that they made it to the mountain town with at least some of the gifted lumber. Well-received, enough that a return group was sent, considering now more availability for negotiations. It wasn't much, and it's not like alliance is on the table, but this is definite progress towards something meaningful. Most human towns would not bother with each other apart from opportunistic attacks.
<span class="mu-r">"We on the frontlines of this conflict must support one another, we know the threat better than the rest."</span>
As you would say. The problem is, this newcomer group is no more immune to your charms and divine influence than your own people. Perhaps even less so, because they aren't used to you. As such, you're not sure how much use you'll find with the visiting group when they're so severely led astray by you and never want to leave! At least you can learn some things from them that may be important.
