Gods of Glorantha Krarsht: Chaos, Undeath (I think that's the undead
rune)
And the passage reads:
"Larneste, the patron of Change once saw the squirming being of
Krarsht and sought to elimiate the **chaos evil** from the world.
When he tried to step on the foulness, however, Krarsht sprang to
bite the god, breaking his divine skin and infecting the wound
immediately."
... and where the infected blood landed became a "bastion of chaos."
Hmmm. Seems pretty chaotic to me.
