|p=''>>Or maybe another way to put it: Nature doesn't do what we ({{PRel|ranger}}s) want in return for performing the function of Nature's Caretakers, rather we can get nature to do what we want because we spend so much time around it doing Caretaker stuff?''

Yeah.

{{PRel|Beseeches}} are meant to be a bit fuzzy. There are Ranger-mystics who really, truly believe they are in communion with the "spirit of Elanthia" or however you want to conceptualize a nature god. A more conventional but perhaps not popular view would be that Rangers learn supernatural techniques to "tap into the flow" and divert some of Nature's energy down a slightly different path.

And there is something to be said for nature spirits. There is no "nature overgod" that cares or even understands what Rangers want, but it's entirely possible that a supernaturally minded Ranger could conceive of and even communicate with the spirit of a specific brook, speak to a tree, or something along those lines.
