Which made-up thing do you badly wish was real?

If I was able to pick a religion to be real, I’d want it to be animism.

I’ve always liked the idea of there being a spirit of a place, like a spirit of a local stream or woods.

I wouldn’t want them to be evil like in some stories where you need to placate them but I like the idea of honoring the place that you live. I like having the area personified in the form of a spirit who you give offerings to. Maybe people would be more careful with their dealings with nature.

What do you think? Would you want there to be nature spirits around?
