The Naturalists
The Naturalists are a loosely knit group of what many, more conservative elves would call "granola headed, bleeding heart hippies". They are regularly disparaged by many, but not by as many as it would seem. Many folks are quite sympathetic to the Naturalists' platform of simple, wholesome living. Many more than will admit to it, certainly.
