Aggar does have Orlanth worship, within the Glowline. And there is little but surrogate Orlanth worship anywhere in the Orlanthi provincial kingdoms.

Argrath does not exactly intervene on behalf of the Fazzurites, but to oppose Moirades and Pharandros. While Lunar religion seems to remain in Tarsh after the conquest, Orlanthi religion never has been extinct.

Not much of a liberation with a king like Mularik, I agree...
