World

In Phlea the animal kingdom sits at the bottom of the food chain. Hyperevolved plants and fungi rule this plane, with a council of ancient treefolk whose plans have existed since the plane's beginning and their dryad agents instill a repressive respect for nature in the "lesser" beings of flesh. Can a revolution of elves against the trees they once worshiped overturn this order - or should it?
