Hi Peter,
Thanks for the information.
" There's also the relevance of sunken Abzered which was a land
that included both Kralorela and Teshnos and a land bridge that
stretched to distant Vormain. The Deep Mysteries could be
a Zabdamar plot."
What resources(books, online, etc.) would provide details as to
this?
Also, while I understand that BECOMING a dragon or a sage
would require a secret, I was actually more curious about how
they were revered in the Gloranthan sense. That is, are Sages
equivalent to Saints? Deities? Spirits? What about Dragons?
The reason I'm getting nitpicky is that I'm considering writing up
a demo scenario to introduce folks to HQ, and I would like to
have it at least somewhat in line with the established setting.
Plus Kralorela, Teshnos and the Eastern Isles all appeal to me
much more than the Lunar/Heortling conflict.
Thanks again,
Chrsi
