Hmmm,

Totally theoretical/heretical -

Assuming they kill off Orlanth, the main "Middle Air" deity, then Rufelza/Sedenya/Moon-of-a-Thousand-Names could "take over" the Middle Air. *BUT* - she was originally a Sky deity, so killing off the heir of Umath might allow her to reascend to the Sky, "healing" the breach between Sky and Earth, bringing on a new Green Age!

I'm sure the dwarves would consider this a major step in repairing the machine - get rid of that pesky airy malfunction that keeps the two halves of the world machine apart...
