I'm trying an experiment to see if we can't make the Faethorn realm a
little more manageable without gutting the conflict completely. So this
is how it will work: the wild fae who are bonded to either Night or Moon
will stay in Ethereal Glomdoring or Ethereal Serenwilde, respectively,
for about five Lusternian months, after which time they will return to
Faethorn. During these 5 months, they will passively generate power
(about 2x per game month). They will still generate power when converted
to either Moon or Night, but, if they are taken from Night to Moon (or
vice versa), they will run off for a short period of time before
returning to their new ethereal location (to prevent some wiley commune
people from passing fae back and forth and generating limitless power).

What this means is that wild fae will stay in their respective locations
for five game months and gathering champions is a slower process (and
thus more significant and difficult accomplishment) to prepare for the
Faethorn battle. Theoretically, this will make Faethorn itself less of a
battle ground and force either side to actually invade their counterpart
ethereal forests if they want to "free" (or insert appropriate verb) the
fae. It will also obviously mean "protecting" the fae you've converted
easier.

My hope is that this will maintain the dynamics but cause less stress to
the communes. If not, I'm sure I'll hear about it on the forums!
