Just to explain further: I'm writing a little scenario about a group of young Lunars who are appointed to serve in Ulgoth, as administrators representing the Empire following the fall from grace of the traditional authorities there. Anyone got any ideas on where I can learn more about Kostaddi or the Imperial bureacracy? I have ILH 1 & 2 and am consulting them. If it works out I hope to put it on the website after I have run it a couple of times. What roles might the charcaters assume?

I can always make it up, but advice is always good. the central premise is that some fine magical grapes are grown in the vinyards surrounding Ulgoth, and that traditionally a few cartloads are despatched ot make a wine the Emperor is known to be fond of. In recent years however the crop has failed repeatedly, and the grapes have not been sent: in fcat the nomads of the Hungry Plateau and the Satrap of Kostaddi are also fond of the wine, and the locals have taken to hiding their crop. The Imperial Vintner is angry, and after he witheld access to the best cellars from some high officials, the local adminsitration has been told to expect an adminisrative deputation from Glamour to look in to the matter. So the player characters, young, enthusiastic and expected to fail, are despatched by an official whose own family are deeply implicated in the affair, and trouble ensues...

Any suggestions for potential allies, enemies, and which cults might be active in town? I saw this as a way of trying out ILH 1 & 2 and exploring Kostaddi.
