There is a little bit more information, but the section on Lunar Allies in the Glorantha Box provides an accurate overview of Eol. They definitely do not have river worship in the manner of that done with the Oslir. My only addition is to note that the population originates from northward migrations of the first primitive peoples of the pelorian basin who then and still have a very basic, feminine religion (Shaman might be a bit too sophisticated a term here). At RQCon2 Greg read some of his Wendarian tales, which tell stories involving religion much like that still seen in Eol. Unfortunately, they are not in print yet, so unless you heard them there, or can convince Greg to give you a copy, you'll have to make do with the Glorantha Box. (To win Greg's favor I suggest a ritual sacrifice involving at least 13 chickens and a chipmunk.)
