The sheer pleasure of proposing a Landweird, an accumulation of lost lore and forgotten spirits, and our ability to hear parts of it as a kind of imaginative process of folklore, walking and make-believe; and having spirits come into that practice, seemingly from nowhere; and later on, *finding* them in the lore - it's not just glorified fanfic, it's not your ego, there's no U in the UPG, it's an absolutely respectable overture from this attested-tradition you've found in a book that's right because it's old. The joy!
