A claim has been made that there is no common reason why the Orlanthi\Heortlings\Sartarites would want the Lunars out of Sartar. I have been trying to show reasons why this is plainly false.

Does the seven mothers cult have enough man power to effect the feelings of significant number of clans people within the occupation period.

An 'outside' view doesn't really matter either, as we know that the Lunars never have a chance to show off their good points to the Orlanthi Heortlings. Of course YGMV. I will say it again whether or not the Lunarisation of Sartar is go idea or not is another argument entirely.
