White Moon:

Greg Fried and Sandy have both said things about the White Moon in answer to questions. I can add one piece prompted by this:

Mike Cule:
>It has always struck me as odd that there is no god of
>dreams on Glorantha. I think perhaps that Mother Duck guards the barrier between
>reality and unreality as the world sleeps.

The people of the East Isles say that the White Moon is the goddess of dreams, the protector who keeps nightmares and goblins away. She can only be worshiped in your dreams.


Shang-Hsa etc:

Alex continues the disintegration of my position on the emperors of splendour.

Me:
> I asked at the lore auction if the emperor list was complete and Greg
> said that it is.

Alex:
>I may not be with the programme, here, but which Emperor List is being
>referred to? The only ordinal listing I can find stops at Vayobi.

The others aren't listed in order, but the following are mentioned by name: Vashanti (which I had forgotten, but which Peter Metcalfe pointed me at), Shang-Hsa, Yanoor, Godunya. That's the ones I meant. But i agree that my position gets weaker by the day, so I'll retreat and rethink my strategy.


Me:
>So I perceive a slight conflict here.

Alex:
>Not at all! Perfectly OK! The two can be reconsiled readily, as I will

Is this a new statement in the current Gloranthan diet debate? [ :-) ]
