Do plants make Air in Glorantha? In the RW yes, but I would guess that Gloranthan plants do not make Air. Worshipping a Storm God to refresh the air would make more Gloranthan sense, either that or very long tubes with spirits blowing the air down them. Perhaps there are servant beings who fetch air from the surface and put it into the bubbles.
