The Sixths mostly ceased to perform the communal rituals for the whole of the Holy Country. Heortland and Esrolia suffer from internal conflicts, Caladraland gets religious unrest, Greymane and his sons raid the western Sixths, the Wolf Pirates raid along the coasts, and the trolls try to get the Only Old One back.
There are Pharaoh loyalists trying to bring back the Pharaoh and, while waiting, to conserve what is there.
I think these loyalists may have the ones who granted Broyan the status of "protector of the Holy Country" which enabled him to sell out the remains of the City of Wonders after Pennel Ford.
> Do the Pharoah's initiates still get magic?
Not from the Pharaoh. In my personal opinion every initiate of the Pharaoh belongs to some other cult (practice, school) as well.
Theist followers of the Pharaoh are out of their special magic, apart from whatever artifacts (or relics) they keep and maintain.
Sorcerous followers of the Pharaoh might be lucky - provided they still perform the veneration ceremonies within the schools, the Grimoires ought to keep functioning.
Animists using Helper Spirits ought to be able to maintain that magic, too.

Not yet (and to my knowledge nothing planned in the near future either). Closest bets are the School of Ronos Allwinds and the magical heroband of the heirs of Grandfather Mortal in Masters of Luck and Death.

In my Glorantha the leadership of Karse (pre-conquest) was heavily involved in the Pharaonic cult, so if they happen to be near Karse, they might possibly phind some phlunkies.
