I reallly don't see why it should take termites to enable the installation of a Ranger transport system. I can't see a connection. Termites were used to seal the mounds which no longer exist in Desert and Lakelands. The only reason there would be a connection was if the old mounds were used as "shortcuts" to the Prime Roots... but they were sealed. And that would still not give us any access to the more dangerous (250) aboveground zones. Because, some might know (or not) that the Rangers' transportation system is not by teleportation rather than some secret passages that enable their members to travel faster, or so I heard.

I would understand why the Matis and Zorai would be less than happy if we used termites on their lands to create such "secret" passages...
