All the more fun to have some other Balmyr clans (or the king, if you want to really annoy them) go Full Moon on 'em.

I think in Sartar, "pro-Lunar" is normally to be understood as "Lunar-accepting". Extreme cases aside, they co-operate with the Lunars because not doing so would screw them up economically (or militarily). Moderately pro-Lunar may in many cases may simply mean "killed off all our anti-Lunar leaders, so I guess we're not about to rebel, just yet".

Exactly.

Then again, if Blackmoor has a Pro-Lunar Party, the Malani King might feel compelled to "keep up with the Joneses"? By interpretation is that the Malani is about proportionately as Pro-Lunar as they are Anti-Colymar -- while the Lunars are giving them the chance to shaft the Colymar, make hay while the sun shines... If the Colymar are seen to be "more pro-Lunar than thou", it might make the Malani _very_ nervous about their position.
