My question:
>> Some birds - those that hunt at night - prospered of course. Which is
>> BTW a very good question: did such birds turn to darkness or are they
>> sun worshipers, a sort of sentinels of the sun at night?

Andrew Joelson:
> Owls would be okay as 'sun at night' types.
> Birds that turned to Darkness became bats
That's great: night birds can see because of the light of the stars - the sun connection.
Bats = bird that turned to darkess? It makes sense but in the RW bats are mammals so that's a major change.
> Light worshippers
> with bird familiars/allies that turned to Vivamort created the vampire
> bats.

Why light worshipers? Why not darkness worshipers?

If a bird becames a bat when he turns to darkness does that mean that ducks that turn to darkenss became the batducks of Glorantha? Think for an instant: BatDuck the duck Vampire of the Blind King's Palace in Pavis driving his super raft also know has the duck batmobile through the puzzle cannal...
