The Torchbearer subcult may very well be sufficiently covered by the Elmali mythos (and therefore not needing explicit description in the book line), true (which doesn't mean that it's not a major subcult IMO and IMG), but I can't myself see that the Hellwalker subcult isn't at least *very* important : and at the very least a major source of Elmali HeroQuesting and possible anti-Darkness powers (Secret ?). The Elmal in Hell side of things has certainly been debated at length here and elsewhere, suggesting that it actually *is* quite important, indeed major.

Well, that's precisely my point, really ; although I'd personally relegate that particular role to one of his sons, not Elmal himself ...
