But Lodril does not live in heaven. In fact he can't even touch it.

My advice to folk who want to tell me why we were wrong in associating Lodril with the Earth Rune instead of the Fire/Sky Rune - first read Glorious Reascent of Yelm. Then discuss this from a Gloranthan point of view.

Much of this debate is not about the rules; it is about the fact that Glorious Reascent of Yelm (and Fortunate Succession) supersedes much of the previous material written about Peloria.
