I believe this is incorrect, although I have found the reference in Fortunate Succession. Maybe Greg originally told me, or it was in some of his notes on which I commented. And it may no longer be correct. But according to this other info, GRoY was found or brought out of Alkoth after Sheng Seleris was slain and the nomads finally driven out. It may be that Yelmgatha used GRoY to write FS, but that it was not made generally public until the Fifth Wane.

Actually, Lead Crosses appeared in Wyrms Footnotes 11. And no real myth
was given. Since members who walked the path were so committed to death
that they would kill Chalana Arroy healers to show their devotion, the
quest has been more or less outlawed.
Given that Makla Mann (Humakt hero) gives a spell called Stop Resurrection, I have posited a link between these items, the Path, and this hero before.
The Eight Planets
When I sought a correspondence, it was more from the _original_ nature of the Eight Planets (as described in GRoY), not any current versions. Thus, Shargash has always been the Master of Strength, and is logical for being Kargan Tor. Falsoretus was originally the Master of Transformation, so he is good for Larnste. Since I've started, I guess I'll continue:
Buserian Master of Insight Orenoar Truth Reladivus Master of Serenity Harana Ilor Harmony Shargash Master of Strength Kargan Tor War/Death Derdurnus Master of Brilliance ??? ??? Deumalos Master of Sovereignty Acos Law/Stasis Falsoretus Master of Transformation Larnste Change Verithurus Master of Wisdom Orenoar Truth Ghevengus Master of Action Kargan Tor War
Hmm, some problems here, I see. Two Kargan Tors, two Orenoars, a blank space, and no Ratslaf/Disorder, Tylenea/Illusion, or Uleria/Life. Anyone want to try to fix this, or am I barking up the wrong pillar, er tree?
