One might have to use the Thanatari Darklight to hide the Glowspots Glow.

I was thinking more of the possibility of Lunar Expeditions to Hell, Jurstela, Pamaltela and other locations far beyond the illumination of the Empire. To boldly go where no pelorians have go before, to visti exotic lands and meet strange new races, loot their magical techniques and expose them to unearthly mutating radiation in the name of peace and harmony.

And to destroy the Orlanthi settlements on the far side of Magasta's Whirlpool.

Though that leads to another stranger yet question. Could one Build a Temple of the Reaching moon onboard an absolutely huge moon boat? Or underwater? Because otherwise the Glorious Forces of the Incarnate Manifest Red Destiny runs into a slight problem extending the Visible Proof of Grace of the Goddesses Love to the other continents.
