So, more helpfully, is there a better pithy summary of Arkat/Nysalor/Gbaji, suitable for Glorantha newcomers and condusive to fun gaming? For example:
"Nysalor was the name given to a god created by a long ritual performed by several cultures simultaneously, believed by them to be a benevolent god. It was also named Gbaji the deceiver by those who believed it to be a chaos entity.
"Arkat was a mortal from the west who believed it to be a chaos entity; in his quest to defeat it, he became an Orlanthi, a troll, __[fill in the blank]__. Those who believed him to have betrayed their cultures called him Gbaji.
"The two beings met in a final battle. One was defeated and the other buried its dismembered body, proclaiming himself the good one and the dead one Gbaji."
Is that a more accurate, properly vague, and condusive-to-fun-gaming summary? If not, is such a thing possible, and are there better suggestions?
