At least a bit. (And then it seems like it resurrected the digest, not a bad
thing at all). But I have naturally now more questions on this subject.

I always thought that Hsunchen meant worship bestial dieties and having a tight
bond to your animal brothers. I didn't think that it has something to do with
being primitive and hunter gatherers. That would mean that the pre Dawn Telmori
were Telmori but probably not Hsunchen, right ? And that they had some higher
level of organization than average Hsunchen. I am somehow disturbed as how the
hints in Dorastor (Wolf Fort, City of Wolves) were read by you. Is there no
chance that the Telmori had something like a kingdom, even if not civilized at
all ?
