Well said, that man!
I dislike the current situation with static challenges where, as characters progress, some heroquests will become trivially simple while others remain obnoxiously impossible. I would prefer them to be scaled, proportionate to characters' intents, desires and powers.
As well as the three Charles mentions, there is (per "Storm Tribe") a form of LBQ which is completed by every wannabe Wind Lord of Orlanth: presumably this is not the same as the epoch-shaking quests completed only by the likes of Harmast, Argrath, etc., but it certainly sounds heftier than the annual Sacred Time ritual of the Greydog Clan.
I think Greg must be misremembering what's in print. "King of Sartar" and "Storm Tribe" are published Issaries sources. Let's not ignore them unnecessarily.
Cheers, Nick
