Thanks, Robyn.<br/><br/>The sinister side (at least from a human perspective) of wood elven pantheism is that there are no transcendental deities. All spirits are on a tangible dimension and can (and often do) take physical forms, which means that they are of<em>this world</em>and natural phenomena. And because they are natural, they follow the often harsh, if not downright cruel, laws of nature. In this sense, the wood elves have a specific niche: they believe they have a special relationship with the spirits of their Caerns, but this relationship can only be maintained through offerings, ritual devotion and sacrifice.
