Rather like the Victorian Whigs' attitude to the Saxons.

You have a point. However (i) why waste a nice title and (ii) with the Carmanian preoccupation with dualism why not have seperate positions for high ranking hazari and viziri?
My thoughts on Invisus Lanatum came very much from the Worioni/Brolian perspective. Thus the name. IMO the original spirit cult allowed Worioni marginals to get sorcery. The emphasis was less on Lanatum IdoVan's killer than on Lanatum who brings the Light of Sorcery.
Carmanians already have sorcery so the "Light"
bringer aspect is subordinated to the Slayer
aspect. At this point the Carmanian obsession
with killing things in order to steal their
power comes into play in a big way. I like
Cheiron's version of events though it'll take
a while to reconcile it with my own
preconceptions. OTOH I think they might see
IO as the transcendant God and IdoVan as the
evil Demiurge.
