I believe [[Rahu]] was intended to be a mining colony. The invading [[Rakshasa]] chose to colonize [[Ilmari]] for the same reason the crones came centuries ago: there are large untapped veins of magical metals here. Perhaps the future inhabitants of [[Rahu]] should be allowed to mine this metal for themselves. But for now, these wretched survivors must not be given access to the metal, for they seem to understand its powers far better than we do. They are desperate for weapons and care not for consequences. So we have destroyed every piece of mining equipment and collapsed their mines. The survivors won't soon reopen them.
But the underground creatures of the "gob[[Gob-landsLands]]" covet the metal as well, and without the crones to keep them in check, [[Goblin]] miners will eventually find this place. When that happens, I fear for the safety of the water crystals. So I've asked the druids of [[Ri-Shin]] to help me plant many small [[Treants]] in the most defensible areas. With luck, they will ensure that [[Rahu]] has a few hundred years of clean water.
