Yes, Eldarius Yfae'dren, you can still run shops! Indeed, in our
benevolence, we will ask those mortals who we feel show promise to run
some of the day-to-day aspects of daily life. As Talan so eloquently
pointed out, there are many small responsibilities and perhaps it would
be best if mortals continue to handle those duties.

As it is, we want to thank everyone for the warm welcome and your
embrace of this New World Order. The time will come when you will look
back at the time of the Elders as one of barbaric chaos. Let us bask in
this Age of Enlightenment!
