The Forest People
The group of people to which "bigfoot" Strength of a River in His Shoulders, or River for short, belongs to. They shy away from human civilization and are huge and hairy in appearnce. They have large reservoirs of power to draw upon, a side-effect of which may be the growth of excess body hair. They are as magically gifted as most wizards of the Council, and extremely smart. However, they tend to be very careful to remain ignored by humans, and probably other creatures as well.

Famous quotes containing the words forest and/or people:
“Our democracy, our culture, our whole way of life is a spectacular triumph of the blah. Why not have a political convention without politics to nominate a leader who’s out in front of nobody?... Maybe our national mindlessness is the very thing that keeps us from turning into one of those smelly European countries full of pseudo-reds and crypto-fascists and greens who dress like forest elves.”
—P.J. (Patrick Jake)
“Here is the paradox: What children take from us, they give. When we are not totally “free,” we learn how to cope with a smaller world, less time, less luxury,... We become people who feel more deeply, question more deeply, hurt more deeply and love more deeply.”
—Sonia Taitz (20th century)
