Thank you for your kind responses about my foolish murmuring.....but please see Orlanth is Dead! p.2....I guess maybe it was the reason why Stephen was reluctant to credit my "name" there......(not good for game sale....) Maybe I should change my "name"......Anyway, I exaggerated the situation.

Sshorg Sea and Aroka:
Peter Metcalph:

IMO here are far more good map in Thunder Rebels p.144 (It seems Aroka = Seolinthor) and Uz Lore of Old Troll (Creekstream and Oslira was linked? though I don't know when Korang was killed and /or Urox made Stormwalk before or after) pack about Theistic Gods Age hints Greg's change of his concept.
And I can see Godlearner maps in Initiate site. But as far as Heortling called the event as the Orlanth's Second Dragon Slaying and the topology of the modern day Sshorg Sea and Genertela, I think rather the Flood between Prax and Dragonpass was the Aroka and Seolinthor from the POV of Heortling.

Fonrit:

Surely, I misunderstood its source. Most of them I refered was written by Simon Bray and Martin Hawley. My supposition that you made the editorial work for Enclosure 2 seems wrong.
Simon Bray:

I have tried to simple generalisation for my pamaltela memo.

Like Saint Ebbesh of Martin Hawley? Anyway, Peter's and Godlearner's speculation:
>Naturally, as proven long

>dangerous. The Fonritans do not accept that, being theists."
>RM p41-42
Sorry, I cannot grasp the context of simple "do not accept that, being
theists."
Does it mean that Fonritans are theists in the Godlearner categorization,
but Fonritans don't admit it?
>Ompalam may have come
>from the Vadeli Kingdom of Oabil/Chir. Presumably this is what the
>Doraddi believe.
Or simply Ompalam was a Chaos God in old Glorantha concept and remained
after the change of Pamaltelan setting.
Anyway, I cannot fully comprehend which is the Greg's latest idea and others
are not.
I simply thought fonritans revived Blue Moon Tradition of Artmail through distorted way from the POV of foreigners. Maybe my identification that civilzation = theism and primitiveness = animism is wrong. And more speculate the form of worship like sacrifice or ecstatic worship is suitable.
