Rangers present talk about themselves
- Patrol areas
- Ranger Issues
- - What we learned: If your a ranger, your family better have had contacts with elves at some point, been horribly displaced in disaster, have a crisis of profession then come back to rangering. Good job on that character guys.
Song of the Trees


Mielikki, please watch over us as we continue to bring your beloved together (ad libbed). We ask the forest queen to protect the rangers through their hunts (ad libbed). Rangers, Stay Well, Stay hidden and always serve the Forest Queen faithfully.

"Dear Rangers and Fellow Mielikkians,

I propose another meeting of the faithful, so that we can talk about possible preparations for the fourth feast festival on the winter soltice.

May Mielikki watch your travels through the forests and guide your path. Stay well, stay hidden, stay swift.

Information on the festival.

The best-known to outsiders of the holy rituals of Mielikki are the Four Feasts of the solstice and equinox nights. These are known simply as the First Feast, the Second Feast, and so on. They are occasions for holy rituals and revels, wherein all Mielikki's faithful are expected to celebrate the sensual side of existence and sing praises to the Lady in forest depths wherever possible.

"Dear Rangers and Fellow Mielikkians,

I propose another meeting of the faithful, so that we can talk about preparations for the Fourth Feast festival on the 20th of Nightal. I hope all of the faithful can inform anybody who wishes to participate in preparations for the Fourth Feast to attend so that we can discuss how best to make this happen. The meetings are always open to all who respect the forest as much as we do and it would be nice to be able to spread the messages of Mielikki to those who are interested.

May Mielikki watch your travels through the forests and guide your path. Stay well, stay hidden, stay swift.

With Faith,
Robin Silver"

"Dear Rangers and Fellow Mielikkians,

I propose another meeting of the faithful. Long have the faithful known how to respect the balance of the forests but it is time that this responsibility not just fall on the faithful, but on everybody. We will be talking about spreading respect of the forests to all people who choose to adventure within.

May Mielikki watch your travels through the forests and guide your path. Stay well, stay hidden, stay swift.

With Faith,
Robin Silver"

Several flyers can be seen a posted around Baldur's Gate and The Friendly Arm Inn:

To any and all who care for the woods and the forests,
Mielikki's faithful as well as her rangers have answered the call to defend the woods. In six days hence, at the appointed hour we will gather outside the Friendly Arm Inn, near the edge of the Woods of Sharp Teeth. The purpose of this meeting is to plant trees where they are most needed so the healing of the woods may continue, but there is another purpose as well. We will be demonstrating ways in which we -all- can be more respectful and mindful of nature, so that we might preserve it's beauty and live in harmony with it. This is information -no one- should be without! Any and all are welcome so long as they can be respectful of nature as well as other attendants and that which earnestly want to learn how they can do their part for the woods!

/// The letter goes on to name the day and time. Part of the idea behind this is trying to be flexible on our event times so we arent always excluding players of certain time zones. Tentatively we want this for friday, around 6-7pm Central, which I believe is GMT -6, however if I get a lot of responses via PM or other places on the forum for people who would like to come but cant work the time out, I can speak with the other organizers and see if we can move it. Personally I am very flexible with times, especially on the weekends.///

The faithful of Mielikki will be gathering at the tree planting rites rather than hosting a meeting this week. All adventurers are encourages to join in and help plant trees to replenish the damage that was caused by the recent wars.

[Seymor]

The faithful will meet this week to talk about continuing to spread the faith after the successful tree planting. I am eager to see everybody there, and some new faces as well.

The meeting of the faithful will be held this Friday with the tentative topic being the topic that we didn't talk about last week due to low turnout.

Pate gathers his pertinent supplies for traveling light and makes his way to the north side of Thundar's Ride. Therein he lingers in the shadows with great caution, keeping an eye out for any and all signs of recent Black Orc activity. Perhaps a trail that has not gone entirely cold...

Robin stays late after the Meeting of the Faithful, the recent setbacks in planning a strike against the Black Orcs weighing heavily on his mind. Luther gives a squeek, knocking Robin out of his stupor and prompting Robin to give a smile down at his friend. "Don't worry buddy, Mielikki will surely guide the rangers to success. You're home will be safe again as long as we are persistent and faithful."

Robin spends some time praying to Mielikki, hoping for help from the Forest Queen to her beloved who are putting themselves in so much danger while tracking the Black Orcs. He adds in a special prayer to Gwaeron Windstrom, "may the Rangers hold true the lessons that you have passed down and succeed against the illusions the black orcs weave to cover their path."

/* The meeting of the faithful has moved time! The meetings will now occur at:

4:00 PM Central US time, every Saturday.

I'm hoping this will be more inclusive so that europeans can participate.

Robin spends much of his spare time tending to the shrine of Mielikki, slaying the occasional goblin who gets too close to the shrine. He encourages all that he sees with even a passing interesting in the forest or nature to attend the next meeting of the faithful, as he has some big announcements to make regarding the future of the meetings.
