And we get a letter saying that Basmol isn't wholly gone, which must
be true, since it is signed:
> Basmol
And Nils Weinander writes a letter with the Subject: The second swedish civil war :-)

Honestly, I think of most other cultures as damn intolerant as well.
Reread the "What the Priest says" - most, except the Lunars, has
nothing but contempt for all other ways of religious thought. I don't
like it either, but for me it is just a difference of
degree, not style.

You make a simple statement that I'm incapable of following. Guh?

Nope. I don't think the mythical map of the West is that much more
different from other cultures than any other Gloranthan culture, if
the cultures in question are far enough apart. But as you, say, this
is really a thing that you can't argue about. Damn lack of empirical
evidence, for a start..... :-)

That's a mission for Boristi Knights and Wizards. The Boristi Farmers
(who will be Rokari Farmers as soon as any outsider is looking) are
the ones keeping the Ks and Ws floating, so they can steal off once
in a while on mysterious secret missions by the true Boristi Lords,
the secret Register.
