Posted beside the gate on the walls of Bendir dale, framed and sealed by glass

From a forest dweller;

Please, to all who care to listen;
do not post your advertisements and noisome announcements
in our proud forest. Look at the blatant pollution that you have
brought to this sanctuary. See how the dead parchment of hundreds
of notices have filled the crossroads
and made it disgusting and barren.
No animal dare come within
a dozen feet of it,
and yet we continue to civilize it.

I have built a small circle of rocks in an alcove nearby;
please use it to safely burn your notices, if you must write them.
To those who tear them down,
use it to dispose of them.

Thank you,

Rolaen
