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.
