OK, finally got a break from the madness that is this week:
M'Xum spreads the cold loneliness of night further: 6pts to turn 14 squares to hills, and then 26pts to turn 91 squares to desert. All the squares overlaid with yellow on the attached version of the map are turned to desert, and all the squares overlaid with brown are turned to mountains. (It would have taken quite some time to type out all those squares, I hope this is OK)
Alar ignites a love of musical tales within the goblinoids -- some of their number abstain from the petty power squabbles of the tribes and form the Singers of Story (8pts), a motley union of wanderers and outcasts who collect oral histories and origin stories of the tribes and their forests. She Commands them (4pts) with spreading throughout the tribes a reverence for the forests and a sense of belonging to nature from which the goblinoids sprang -- through the medium of song and story. The Singers are charismatic freeloaders outside the usual tribe/family structures, tolerated for their charm and passion, but rarely for long. She then continues spreading forests (18pts for 42 hexes): all the areas shaded green in the attached map turn to forests and the areas shaded grey turn to (forested) hills.
