This is a repeat of what has been mentioned before with one additional note:<br/><br/>Within the Valley there is<span class="bbc_u">plenty </span>of space for everyone.  Dragoons are very intelligent beings who would not undertake to invite so many other beings into their hidden home if they did not think other wise.  The mountain range that surrounds the valley has plenty of caves as well as plenty of space with in the valley.  So as far as physically there is plenty of space.  However ones characters may think to themselves of the place as being more crowded or condensed since most of them are more used to a nomadic type life style with huge territories in most cases.  So in that since it would be understandable why the valley might on some levels feel more crowded and compact.<br/><br/>There is a small note that I wish to address before we get to much further into the story.  Not that I wish to step on any toes but I think it is an issue that could be easily resolved.  I have seen the start of a trend where there is a concern for a lack of food within the Valley.  The valley itself is very large and very self sustaining.  With plenty of room for cultivating crops.  Granted over time meat sources may dwindle but that would be something that the dragoons or even the two dragons who also live in the valley could help replenish by bring back live stock that could also be bred for future generations.  (Well I said two dragons but only one of them is currently actually in the valley.  One being out and about to make an appearance at a later time.  erm... sometime after I post as Dirk then get busy with my next two character profiles.)  So lets pull our leaders together to address the issues of the possibility of food stocks running low.  Both the lake and the large deep pool at the foot of the waterfall would be a good place to look for a decent fish supply.  Of course arrangements would need to be made with the Mermaids as to the best ways of fishing in the lake to avoid accidents but over all there should be more than enough supplies to sustain the inhabitants of the Valley.  The seekers who go out to find other weres could just as easily go out as hunting parties to bring back much needed supplies as well.<br/><br/>I really am sorry if I sound like I am harping on this issue but Akasma and I had a particular vision in mind for the valley itself and the conditions for living within the valley.  If you have any questions or concerns about this please feel free to bring them out in the OOC.  That is after all what part of an Out of Character is for.  Or if you do not feel comfortable doing so in "public" so to speak feel free to PM either one of us or even both if you chose to do so.  Then we can address your questions in the OOC without having to mention where the ideas have come from.<br/><br/>Leaves Huggles, Kisses and handshakes for all.  Take which ever ones you wish to have.<br/><br/>~Nim~
