or *changed* ...
Glorantha is a dynamic cosmos, not a static one.
I'm with Peter on this one ...

(many parts of the Hero Plane being cultural utopias? Cool!
Solace is Utopia?)
but I think that it's "establish" rather than "re establish",
even though Golden Age mythology invariably states that a
Perfect Age once existed. (These myths are invariably false
in RW, but maybe not in Glorantha.)
The attributes of Perfection are unstable in any culture's
history, of course;
Brithini excepted ...
The Lunars are trying to establish a Golden Age too, of course, except that they're (unusually) placing it in the Future; the Perfect Age *will* exist;

Yeah ... :-(
Don't think Puritans is terribly kosher either ...
Their theology might need fleshing out quite a bit before we know what their name is;
"Ahagists"(sp?) maybe, if it's not too ugly/pedantic ...
But would our heretics really care about that? (Do Henotheists worry about that sort of thing?)
