I have to second that. Gaumata's vision is what I used as the basis of an "introduction to Glorantha" minicampaign for people new to Glorantha (but not gaming). For added poignancy I set the scenario in 1400 ST, during the Solitude of Testing. It speaks well of the scenario that I hardly had to change a thing. The only (miniscule) grumble is that the dried up village didn't have it's previous name mentioned.

I named the village "Queen's Gift" after Queen Catfish, the spirit of the local river, and had one (rather messed up) character heil from there.

But, an excellent piece of work indeed, that produced good and inspired roleplaying.
