Provinces mean little other than the gems (and to a lesser extent income) they produce - that's what makes the philosophers wet themselves when they gaze east.
Speaking of which, the White Tower has recently endorsed Vine Shields as the shield of choice for our thugs and seeks some nature gems. We can trade a mix of W/F/E/D gems in exchange. We are also offering Construction 6 abilities to all who seek our masterful works. We only charge MSRP + 2 gems.
