I suspect the presense of the mostali in (all) the otherworlds is usually ignored.

I suggested to Greg at a convulsion some years back, that when an Orlanthi HQ:s into the Court of the Emperor, to engage in the contests, he may be able to see (but usually not much notice) shortish servant types fixing the broken tilework in the corridors, and suchlikes.

The mostali are fixing the world, and their presense can be detected in the otherworld(s).

My 2 clacks.
