I am in the process of attempting to write detailed cult write-ups for the individuals that make up the Seven Mothers. I just wondered whether anyone had seen details that led to the SM's creating the goddess, and of their apotheosises, and history pre- and during the zero wane..

I've read in CoP and sometime back in a History of the Lunar Empire that Carmania and Pentian nomads drove the Sm to create the goddess. Why? What would make these people strive to create a god/goddess? Did they set out on this task of rhtier own rise to power?

Maybe more importantly, these renegades must have had motives, to risk cult reprisals and such like from their own gods. MY only reasoning could be that they were illuminated, thus giving the an sense of higher things.

Dunnop, what do you guru's think?
