This is obscure stuff and it seems to me to be one of the things that Greg made up and forgot about.
THE FLYING LAND
A great body of air flies slowly and majestically through the
atmosphere of Glorantha. It is home to a band of immortals,
either the lesser children of great gods or of great mortals
who have earned eternal existence. It is usually disguised
behind a vast storm of thunderous clouds. When it goes
overhead it blots out all life below, save for a single blinding
hot point of light almost five kilometres wide. A high priest
of Dayzatar once looked up into the Floating Land and said
it was a transparent pool where golden fishes of the Sun swim.
Garanmador, an Orlanthi hero, who helped throw down the
Empire of the Wyrm Friends, went there to get the Sword of
Five Dooms and is said to have retired there. Its appearance
is said to bring disaster to all in its shadow.
It doesn't fit very well sadly.
