Uh, no. That is, that is neither subjective nor a case of true cultural relativism. When you use the words "standards of Glorantha and Kallyr's gods..." even you are obviously thinking that there are such standards and that they aren't dependent of Kallyr's own views and morals. If it was just a question on whether Kallyr feels quilty or not, then it would be a subjective issue. If it was just a question of the morals of Kallyr's culture, then it would be a cultural relativity issue, but I don't think that is true either.
But I guess that's enough out of me on this subject,
