Thank you :)

Quite. "Loyal daughter" is one of her titles. You go around beating up her dad, she objects. Though it has to be said that the situation with the Red Woman in Saird is rather odd...

I think I'd add that everyone has their own way of worshipping Ernalda. And if your way is "Ernalda the wife of Orlanth", then I doubt if *that* Ernalda will be too keen on any Lunar worship on the side.

Since New Glorantha invented Rigsdal and put him in the Storm pantheon, removing the need for her to get Polaris worship from somewhere, even she doesn't roam outside her own pantheon (well, not that I know of, yet). She just picks some rather odd combinations and sub-cults.

And when Arkat returns, what do you bet that all seven of him are PCs?
