>veidras: western sea coast?( malkioni&waertagi )
>urox: genert garden
>ragnaglar: fronela?
>humakt: southern pent?north wind
>orlanth: dragon pass&ralios

An interesting theory but it doesn't quite stack up mainly because there's no myth of such a division and the Storm Sons are found all over the place. Urox is also known to be worshipped by fronelan tribes while Humakt was found in Ralios and Fronela.

Some Stormsons were the strongest in some regions as Vadrus was in Fronela (the trollpak reference to Ragnaglar is sheer libel).

If Pent was part of the Garden, then it would be blasted chaos waste when Genert died.

Only some of the Pentans occupied Peloria. Most of them have always lived in Pent as have their ancestors.

The Lendarshi did not appear in Peloria until after the Rinliddi bird armies had been destroyed during the Darkness. Then there's a single grey age migration of horse people throughout Peloria such as the Lendarshi, the Targos and the Jenarong. I should note that these horse riders are not pure Pentans as they had become intermixed with Zarkosite goat-herders before the destruction of the Rinliddi bird riders.

The Hyalorings are a seperate people from this.

>composite tribe of pelanda created civilization without horse army.

The Lendarshi did have a horse army until the horse riders were crushed by the Dara Happans in the Dawn Age (Mahzanelm's reign I'd think).
