This is a story from an unknown number of years ago, all the people involved have already perished, so thinking about it serves no purpose.
She sighed softly, continuing to recount the past.
After the Tree Elves gained the upper hand, they quickly seized control of the dialogue.
They forbade the consumption of plants because plants were their parents.
Roland was speechless.
Elves are nature's favorites. While they don't reject meat, eggs, and milk, their diet is light and primarily vegetarian.
"If they don't allow us to eat plants, do they expect elves to eat meat? Five hundred million elves is not a small number, even if flora and fauna thrived in the Third Era, it wouldn't be enough."
"No, animals can't be eaten either."
Roland was amused, "If plants can't be eaten, and animals can't be eaten, do you eat mushrooms all day long?"
"Yes, after the Tree Elves seized power, for nearly three hundred years, our legal food was a variety of mushrooms."
