<< >Oh. The Blue People are Waertagi.
Peter Metcalfe:
To be more correct, the Waertagi are among the Blue People.
The Blue People of Pelanda are certainly connected to
the Waertagi (as can be seen by their logicians) but the
other blue people (Zaranistangi etc) are not.

The difference being, as far as I can tell, that Waertagi are air breathing,
and live on the surface, and the DediVakaRu ('folk of the watery blue') live
underwater, presumably breathing water. Other Pelandan blue people
(DediOronin, Vakaruvians, Oredanarans, DediZoraRu, and Ara MaBaariSaro) are
probably less amphibious. It seems to me that there should be degrees of
Waertagi-ness, from a slight tint of Innsmouth to complete fishface.
