Let's be clear - privateers are private agents of a government or state.
Pirates are not so backed. Who ever it was that asked about privateers,
were you talking about privateers or pirates?
I think Pirates in Glorantha are common. I think there are few/no
privateers in Glorantha, the distinction being lost on most people in the
3rd age.
