Don't have my book in front of me for their names, but the *other* Rinliddan cults (one is The Bat, right?), about which I've never complained, are clearly appropriate to a Pentan-Rinliddan conflict. Avarnia is, really, a stretch.
As a peace offering, when you or Peter write a good myth/story about how a brave hero of Avarnia, the Goddess of fat quails, is essential, *as an Avarnan*, in defeating the nomad hordes, I'll buy you a beer. Something a lot better than "I was chasing Quails and found Stormbringer". :-)
As for who is the major opposition of the Empire, when Issaries publishes 3 books and a computer game about the Pentans (to match the Sartar material, hmm, I guess you need to add a "King of Pent" book too), then I'll believe that they are the major opposition. I'm just taking a *practical* look here, as a player, "what can I play now with excellent documentation and intriguing heroes", Sartarites are the choice. The real live people who actually buy your books are more likely to be playing Sartarites than Pentans.
And yes, I was under the "old, obsolete" impression that Lunars ran the Empire and kept the Solars well leashed. Issaries are certainly free to *change* that. And I am free to say I find the Lunar side more interesting. Most Solars are, well, stuffy losers. :-)
