Another one from me...
I was wondering if a Wizard who methodically studied the texts of his school in a monastic or hermetic seculsion would be considered a mystic?
Kabbalistic practices that involve study of texts are sometimes considered mystical practices in our world; would this be the case in Glorantha? Or is this scholar "just" a very dedicated magician? [Admittedly, Kabbalism did not endorse extreme asceticism or isolation from the mundane world but it was an attempt to obtain spiritual understanding of the transcendent which makes me wonder about what this would be considered in Glorantha?].
