I ran across Phannah Stonehenge in TSC a few days ago, and thought she might be able to provide us with some insight, seeing as she has been the center of controversy with some groups, be it her passion for fur, or her relationship with the self-proclaimed GOLDE drake, Voskresenieye. Phannah, dressed in a hooded forest green spidersilk lynx fur-lined cloak, blue silk harem pants and top, sapphire earrings, and a twinkling heart-shaped diamond ring, agreed and granted me an interview.

Aradath Tribune: All right. Tell me about yourself - your profession and family and such.

P.S: I am from a small farm near Rathan, I have no more family. I was called to Elindale when I was 18. I believe she chose me to be her Priestess.

A.T: What happened to your family?

P.S: They were killed; first my parents, then my sister. My parents used to follow Taath.

A.T: By who?

P.S: I believe the men that killed them were from a separate cult of Taathians. They raped my sister-she was 12. Then they came back and killed them all, and me when I tried to save Taesia.

A.T: Is that your sister?

P.S: She was.

A.T: Go on, you went to Elindale when you were 18?

P.S: I met her in the forest.

P.S: She appeared to me as a lady - with a dress of vines and dark hair. She told me to go to Spur, So I did.

P.S: And she saved me when I was killed by taking me away for a year.

A.T: Away to where?"

P.S: To her gardens. I lived with her for a year, then she returned me to Spur.

P.S: It was lonely, but it was peaceful. I learned a lot about myself.

A.T: I know a lot of people are curious about your relationship with the - er - GOLDE, as he calls himself. Care to talk about that?

P.S: Sure, I had not long been in Spur. Vosk came to me and helped me through it. He adopted me, He was going to give me away when I got married, so he decided that that made him my father. You can't change his mind - so I am the daughter of the GOLDE.

A.T: Are you married?

P.S: I am not nor have ever been married.

A.T: Were you engaged?

P.S: I was, twice. Once long ago to a Thugian named Wing Capo, then to Gallaior Braq.

A.T: Wasn't Serrina also engaged to Wing?

P.S: Serrina married him, after he left me.

A.T: Is there any animosity between the two of you?

P.S: Between Serrina and I? We tolerate each other well enough.

A.T: I'm no friend of Serrina's.

P.S: That does not surprise me, she is what she is and I can do nothing about that.

A.T: I understand there is somewhat of an argument in your temple over whether wearing fur is ethical.

P.S: That is a hot one. I was told by Elindale herself that the fur that I wear does not offend her. I love fur.

A.T: Do you get hassled by other Elindites?

P.S: I have never found that animals are used just for their fur. There are a few that have given me a bad time, Mostly the Fir elves.

A.T: What do they say? Ferilleeagh has been a vocal one, hasn't she?

P.S: She has at that.

P.S: She is allowed her opinion, but I love my fur.

A.T: Silly Fir elves. Thinking they know what's best for society.

P.S: I did take this to the others of the temple, it was agreed that I had done nothing wrong. I was concerned at first, but during the games?? Elindale came to me.

A.T: What is Tula's opinion on the matter?

P.S: I think Tula is torn, and I believe that she could tell you her own opinions much better than I could. So, I think fur is fine, and I think those that don't should just not wear it.

A.T: I agree, I don't like fur, but I've been known to wear leather from time to time. Have you heard about that Secian that is trying to make it illegal to eat meat?
