Plum ain't all-powerful, and to be honest, we've been a lot more active recently than we have in a very long time. I think they just lost strength at the time, and we could only maintain what we already had- and most a' that's produce or different types a' goods.

You could consider Plum to be my patron, since I ain't as good with magic- they're benevolent, though. Promise. Gettin' to talk to more people may help 'em out, too. I'm not always the best company after all... and you get happy having more friends too, dontch'a?
