I'm starting to get sick of all the new "myths". They are ruining Glorantha as a game world. And Glorantha IS actually primarily a game world...    

  Sverre.

          Maybe you guys should actually read what I have typed rather than constantly see "Vinga is a Lesbian". Maybe you should toy around with the idea that Ernalda - and not Vinga - is the source of all that is cool and powerful with Heortling women. Ernalda is the Great Goddess, source of magic and society, older than wild Orlanth whom She tamed and made into her guardian, with secrets beyond the ken of Lhankor Mhy and with powers that little Vinga (who chose to continue being her Father's little daughter rather than ever become a woman) cannot even imagine.

Any discussion about Heortling gender attitudes must start with Great Ernalda. Vinga is just a footnote.
