Must be the Orlevings, trying to afflict us Varmandi. Of course, the time Theya summoned the Boar to afflict them has nothing to do with their wickedness.
There's always someone else to send bad stuff at you -- which is how real world shamans explain their occasional curing/predictive failures.

Not at all. In many cultures, introduction of contraception increases the number of children.
Notice I don't say babies (partly because I don't know) -- contraception lets you space out your babies so that more of them survive, and have babies only in years when you have a pretty good idea you'll be able to feed them (no point in having a kid when there's a famine!).
By allowing births only when mother and child can survive, more babies survive. And isn't that what fertility is all about?
