The arguement above is more in line with the followers of twist. Right now the war of Sylvans and Masters is mostly lead by the Sylvan. In large part to the feeling that Transform distroys nature and sence all masters have it and use it they are all Defilers. Sure there are Masters that subscribe to given ideas about magic and nature being apposed but there are those that feel that nature is a form of wild magic that has yet to be contained. Others still could care less about nature and just wish to learn more about magic. Sylvan and the Masters have declaired peace from time to time but it has allways been a shaky peace. Ussually falling apart quickly when one person does something foolish on one side or the other. I think the debate is good for the Game it keeps things Static and fluid, more movement. I like it better than the old days where it was Knight vs Shadow. Master vs Battle and Arbiter vs Baron with almost no crossover, no alliances ever formed and you allways knew you where at war with the other. Now days you have Masters that don't like to raid for the sapling, Sylvans that would rather not fight other elves, even if they are Masters. This all makes Cabals more diverse and makes the game better. You really have to think about your RP and why your are doing something, even if you are in a Cabal which used to just spout cookie cutter ideas.
