** It is certainly unfortunate that you couldn’t find a solution to this problem. Everything seems peaceful and good from our current location, but if Uria’s minions win the war and take over the continent, it will be a matter of time until they come back to claim this island. What if Yechnagoth is able to control the surface creatures in the continent again?

<vultraz> still think which can -> to sounds better

<vultraz> The episode 3 description
 
<vultraz> :P
 
<_8680_> If it was someone orating, I'd rewrite the hope-beacon part, but for that I say it's better as it is.
 
<_8680_> The more I think about "which can" -> "to", the less I like it.
 
<_8680_> If a beacon is "to" anything, it can only be "to" a destination.
