Being a priest of a force is not signifigantly different from being a priest of a
power, But if you wish to use that explaination, fine.

The power of magic runs in elven blood, this is why even non blooded elves may be
true mages. Believing in something other themselves is counter to the elven way
of life. There is not a "Force" of the woodlands which must be protected, elves
must protect the woodland.

or Divination or maybe both... how about complete access to
Enchantment/Charm, and access to 1st- and 2nd-level spells only of
Divination, Illusion, and Universal Magic?

Why is believeing in something other then themselves not the elven way. They
believe in magic. They believe in the connection to the land. In fact it is
this "connection" that allows them to invest with the realm spell cast. It is
this connection that gives Rangers, who are more in tune with the forces of
nature then other elves, their preist like spells and powers. Elves live in
tune with nature, and therefore do not have to grow crops as humans do, not
cultavate as humans do. They also have a great understanding of the magic
flows, so "prtecting" the land is something the choose to do. They live in
harmony, and the generations of hatred that has stemed from the human vs elf
conflicts make them the protectors of the land because they see the magic
depletion as a depletion of their power and their essence.
