I can't swear to this off the top of my head, but I _believe_ it's in one of the Shards of the One True Trollpak. (Into the Troll Realms would be my top guess.)

Allying with trolls would seem a fairly heretical thing for Pentans to do. (Cursed Dupes of Darkness, etc, etc. I wonder if the Storm Pentans have the same hangups, or significantly modified ones...) Though then again, what's life without a spot of heresy?

This likely won't help much, but basically, Anything and Everything. IIRC the Stuff is explained as bits of broken myth, which is a green light if ever I saw one to inserting anything you like which looks Meaningful, but doesn't actually have any real mythic (or otherwise) significance. This is a perfect excuse to throw in a Plot Device, or to just slip in whatever irrational creation your subconscious insists on, but won't "fit" elsewhere in Glorantha.
One sort of "hook" might be to throw in some sort of Pentan items of pre-Night-of-Horrors origin, say. This (whatever it is) looks Oddly Familiar to the guys, but don't actually Make Sense in the light of their current mythology.
Good luck,
Alex.
