@Okor:
1. Ambrosia has been around long enough to train a royal guard by now. (OOC, it's been like almost 2 years) Considering they'd have to fend off orcs quite often, there's plenty of field experience to go around. (I remember during the early days when the royal guard was just some inexperienced teens with spears... yeah, we had to rely on PC Primes a lot back then, and even then there was a high casualty count amongst the guards. Of course, a lot's changed since then.) Also, while the city was started by teens, doesn't mean more experienced soldiers haven't come along since then, hence why Nyeseth is the captain of the royal guard. Remember, while there are a lot of bloggers in the city, this is still also a safe haven for the put upon. There's still room for something worth fighting for there.
2. Admittedly, the water part is kind of... yeah... mistakes were made there. I needed to mention the water because it will become a big financial juggernaught down the line (I have plans, don't worry), but for now... yeah... Though to be fair, not all of the Tangled Green is a rainforest, also farmers may need water during drought season.
3. Man, what's with you and our military? Well, keep in mind, generally humanoid creatures HAVE apposable thumbs, so most would be able to adapt to weapons made for humans. If not, well, I guess they have to wait for a custom weapon to be made?
4. As mention in the culture section, most understand their fears of meat eating is irrational and that it's neccessary for some. They won't oust people for eating meat, they would just feel kind of uncomfortable if it's happening around them.
5. Yes. It's not very well hidden and the farming industry doesn't play well with city walls, so attacks were kind of frequent. This is why security had to be amped up. Attacks are far less common after the security boost, but they still do happen.
