#Heortling
I think Somewhat there is contradiction about the existence of seminomadic / decentralised heortling have their own need (or usefulness) of their tribal center, for it fixes and mends the seat for specific clans that is near of the city [For example, Jonstown has completely on Aranwyth territory, though Malani founded it.] Aside from the fact Sartar made his cities for unifying feuding clans by making cities on its borders (but he certainly failed about Duck Point and Colymar) , for their flexible and practical way [unprincipled? or irresponsible from the point of view of centralised Sun Dome Templars / Dara Happans] might prevent these centers as a one of functionary points of whole Principality.

I think many elected heortling kings want to rule tribes from their own clan base, not distant Tribal Seat. It might indicate the level of centralisation of each tribes....for example, in DP: LoT, Cinsina and Locaem doesn't have specific centers while Malani and Colymar have their own, even if not Yelmalion Tyrannos Rule [Harvar of Vantaros in Aldachur, Count Lukus of Vaantar]. But this might be too technical analysis and it might simply indicate lack of concerns of authors, like about Balkoth along the Jaldon's Grave..... Maybe some sartari see Hauberk Jon permitted to put on his Jonstown distant Cinsina Land with quite astonishment for the eccentricity among Malani......

Volsaxar Tribes
See firstly about Ian Cooper's Power-balance Map, some of Lunar Sympathizers are oppotunists and still likely return to Orlanth worship if such is good

in the course of Hero Wars..., I suppose.

#King of Bacofi Hroar [proLunar]

Example Character of Hroar: He wants to make him true Earl of Volsaxar by hindering the activity of foreign mercenary captain Sanuel, so he might secretly help Broyan to oppose him in the siege. (Or want to make him the true triumpher.) Perhaps Delaying of Lunar Supply?

#King of Sylangi [proLunar]

#King of Curtali [secretly antiLunar?]

Baron Sanuel [from Maniria]
Perhaps he caught oppotunity as King Rikard in the turmoil, (but he is from Maniria, not Tanisor, so he knows and familiar with more about Orlanthi rather than Rikard.) so

Earl of Jansholm, Earldom of Karhend

Bandal Tigerbane in Mt. Passant

Battle of Iceland was fought near of the Auroch Hills? Participation of Fyrd of Culbrea, King Ranulf in future Sartar Rising Campaign....what does it mean in Greg's mindset....?

#Grazers http://www.glorantha.com/products/hqvoices/hqv_grazer.pdf Ask David Dunham about its clannish names and structutes and its tribe (For it seems that Grazers have only one Tribe along with their Solar Centralised Tradition), two leaders [FHQ and LSK], why Sky Bows are hungry? why Yanastan River Laughter and Sora Goodseller are his favorite characters?
