Jane - Your Glorantha Will Vary. Period. I've seen versions of Glorantha where Orlanth is not the King of the Storm Tribe, or where Vinga is completely unknown. I've seen versions of Glorantha where the main group of Humakti are Arkatings or where the Argrath is a conniving politician. These aren't necessary My Glorantha and probably won't be in material that I write with Greg. But so what?

None of the so-called "Unfinished Works" are incomprehensible. And as "in-Gloranthan" documents I consider them more reliable than the so-called "non-Gloranthan" documents like Rule Books. And I often consider people's own experiences playing through a Scenario more reliable than the Scenario Book itself. But YGWV.
