There may different versions of Humakt around Glorantha emphasizing
different aspects of the God. Wether it's death, truth or honor.
But changing Malia to a healing Goddess makes here the opposite to
what she is every where else. Malia creates disease. Disease spreads
death and corruption. If the focus of the cult in the Empire is as
a 'fence' preventing illness it must be a case of join us or die
horribly. Surely this is still a case of blackmail and extortion,
still sounds evil to me. The priests may tell the people they are a
healing cult but I bet they know the real truth.
