Reading back a long way to find the original context... hmm, we had drifted a long way, hadn't we?
She's from Sun Town in Pavis, and left there as fast as she could, severing relations on the way (this was her main initial purpose in joining Humakt!). Since then she's been a mercenary, travelling all over. Prax, Tarsh, Nochet, a brief visit or two to Sartar (she doesn't like it), Whitewall, and no doubt lots of other places too. We left it deliberately vague. A lot of her contacts are from further west, so I expect she's been out there, too.
At present she's in Prax. But "what society she moves in" varies from week to week, and she doesn't see herself as a part of any of them.
The last question on Humakti law raised (and promptly mangled into one on Orlanthi law) wasn't directly relevant to her anyway, it was about whether someone could join Humakt in order to avoid the consequences of their past actions : if they'd committed a murder, for instance.
Now I come to think about it, she *has* encountered that problem briefly: some new initiate joining the group as a follower who seems to have been a bandit before joining Humakt. She took the view that his previous life was just that, a previous life with no connection with his present existence. But then she's biased on the subject of severed relationships. And he had *already* joined the cult, so it's a slightly different question.
