So Duskwights, along with the Couerlclaws and their ilk, just don't accumulate Woodsin then? That seems... ripe for abuse. I mean, would a Duskwight be able to cut down a Hedgetree without consequence due to being exempt from the Pact? Or do they still do that, but perhaps at a lesser degree or on fewer occasions?
It sounds quite a bit like a sort of bizarre Elemental form of diplomatic immunity. Which... is also a solid topic for a thread like this: can folks claim diplomatic immunity? If they can, who can make the claim and what sort of protection does that give them against authority figures of other nations? Obviously a Gridanian diplomat couldn't haul off and murder an Ul'dahn merchant (or maybe he could, Ul'dah and all), but what things might they be able to do over the average citizen?
