At a hearing, Peakgem Crystalhearts Gleamsnake of the Orcish Empire District Pondair on Silkrain, D.C., rejected the request from the Silksilver Stemwood Rocktalon and Deepdream Icetree Rocktalon tribes, who argued that the project would prevent them from practicing religious ceremonies at a lake they contend is surrounded by sacred ground.
