Of course, but how plausible is it that these "different groups" are two Sartarite clans, living just about within spitting distance from each other, either side of the Starfire Ridges, unsupported by any other source evidence at all? I'm fairly sure that the term "Sword" is the Sartarite norm, though I welcome funky variations (as always).

Slainte,
