Any thoughts and thank you. The fact is, Prax is starved for timber. This carries over to Sun County an New Pavis. Strangely enough the Aldryami aren't particularly interested in chopping down their forests to support human civilization either. As you suggest, they may sell seeds, but then there is the issue of growing plantation timber in an area where nomad raids are plentiful and timber is in short supply. In terms of arrows, the Praxians use a plant called arrow cane to provide the shafts of their arrows. It grows well in arid conditions, and there is no reason why the followers of Yelmalio-Tharkantus wouldn't use it too. In my Glorantha, Thrandred Clubfoot makes a seasonal caravan journey into Sartar where he picks up a load of timber which collects at Herongreen, and takes it east into Prax, where a certain proportion is earmarked for New Pavis and Sun County. This amounts to many wagonloads, and is the sort of volume that mules couldn't hope to carry. The caravan is a popular one due to its regularity and strong guard presence, and he picks up many other smaller merchants to join it.

So they need simply for cultivate it on the fringes of the villages, etc. This is great, thanks! The caravan by Clubfoot is a nice add... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
