I found this while searching for something entirely different, read it, and went "wow!".

An ancient hero musician has lost his magical harp, last seen at the bottom of the sea. First he commissions some magical sea-searching equipment, then when that fails, goes on a quest to make a new harp (though to be picky, it only has 5 strings, and I reckon it's a lyre).

Lots and lots of potential for the base of a HQ or two there, though I'm not quite sure where either section would fit into Glorantha. But the descriptive writing is so good that it has to!
