But if the Heortling rebellion in Sartar (ala the adventure books) is
to go ahead then surely Pavis would be involved in it, because it has
an extensive heortling component which logically would rise up at the
same or shortly after. If this is to be co-ordinated (and the Pavis
temple wants liberty as much as the orlanthi do) then it makes sense
that liaisons would be needed, relations established and a valid
reason to go galvanting over the Stormwalk mountains to the greener
side of the hills... which is the nice comfy sort of reply I was
looking for to assuage my doubts.
And I havent even raised the implied possibilities of Pavis being more
than a city god as laid out in Ian Thomson's most excellent books on
Pavis... oh wait, I did after all.
