And who wrote this particular story? If it's the one I'm thinking off, then it's a) an unofficial interpretation and b) Arkat's Father was supposed to have come from the Ralian highlands/East Wilds.

The Brithini do not believe the people of Loskalm and Seshnela to be barbarian nations. They are guilty of being inferior copies of the True People but they are not barbarians.

What statement? I'm _extrapolating_ from Greg's comments about the origins of another god (Issaries).
