The Lunars may like to think that all of Aggar (the= important/Lunar bits of course) are covered by the Glow Line.= But do not forget the valiant freedom fighters of Kree Mountain.= King Rascius may have been seduced by the Red Whore of Chaos and= allowed the unleashing of General Roan-Ur and his Chaos Legions= into the Autumn Mountains with horrific results for the locals= but Orlanth and his kin survived the Great darkness and so will= the fighters on Kree Moutain. (Rumours of the destruction of= Roan-ur's vampire lieutenant, Nightwing, by a Lead Cross are= being fiercely denied by Provincial Headquarters).
This is based on the last rumour I heard that Kree Mountain had= been officially moved by Chaosium from Sartar to Aggar (events= in Life of Moonson suggest this is still true).
And since I was the Humakti who retrieved the Lead Cross in one= of the original tournament's teams the following thoughts have= occurred to me. Firstly back in the innocent days of RQ2 you did= not have to murder any healers [in the tournament it was just a= matter of defeating a Ragnaglar priest and storm demon familiar= (sent by Roan-Ur to get the cross first in order to keep= Nightwing in line) and getting to an ancient holy place up in= the mountains where the Lead Cross was stored - after all, once= you had got it you would not want to lose it].
Firstly. Do you have to murder your own healers i.e. Chalana= Arroy ? As a rebel why wouldn't you want to burst into the Queen= Deezola Red Crescent tents at the nearest military base and= murder as many Lunar healers and their patients as possible as= part of your HQ.
Secondly. Once you have got yourself a Lead Cross won't it just= end up in the tribal/clan/bloodline/temple treasury waiting for= the next time. Do these things just fade away if not covered= with Healers blood or actively used against undead ? Can the= Tales crew answer why haven't the Lismelder done this quest a= couple of times and solved their zombie problem a long time ago= ? This applies to any HQ/super magic item surely. Unless the= Hero who got it has to take it back on their death or after its= use ?
I'm curious about this, Andrew
