Thanks Sky, your help with the druidic rewrites are helpful as always
I think what people are getting hung up about is the different definitions of the word nature.
The first defines purpose or a characteristic.
I.E. The boy has a kind nature. It is by the wolves' nature to hunt deer.
This is one land mine I avoided but there is confusion with the other two definitions that exist in LOTC.
Namely,
Nature is something that exists without need of a known creator or is shaped on its own accord.
I.E. The river flows naturally toward the sea. The void is natural because it was not made by anything.
And,
Nature is a construct of The Aspects
Why is this separate definition important? Because it is the only thing limiting Communion and Control to what is right now. For example,
Why can't I control rocks, wind, and water? Those things exist in harmony with nature?
Why can't I control the void? it naturally exists?
Why can't I commune with Humans? They were created naturally?
Why can't I commune with the Dragons? Aren't they natural?
The answer is that The Aspects did not make the rock, the void, humans, or dragons. The Aspects created the plants, the animals, the fungi, ect. So therefore, druids who have 'nature' magic lack the ability to control things commonly called nature. As opposed to the precise in game reason for what is encompassed by what the druids say X is natural or Y is unnatural.
Hope this clears things up!!
