Well, other than "it varies", the way I see it working is that the Wyter
guides the clan in mysterious ways. Patrols will be more likely to come
across interlopers, because the wyter guides them. Some weaponthanes may be
more "in tune" with the wyter than others. The chief will be more likely to
make the right decisions due to the wyter's guidance and magical insight.
The hunters will be more likely to find game, the crafters will be more
likely to find valuable resources such as high quality clay or precious
stones. I don't see the wyter as being like a booming alarm claxon that
just warns everyone about invaders. Some might have obvous signs that are
easily recognized, such as a flock of ravens when enemies are attacking,
alynxes yowling when game is plentiful, strange ominous cloud formations
when kinstrife is brewing.
Just my thoughts.
Phil.
