It from is a God Learner source, the writings of Thorloss the Scribe in
833 ST and as such is easy to wave away.
I prefer not to do so for two reasons:
- I do not think it coincidental that a tribe of Uz worshipping the
Blue Moon should somehow settle a piece of land that has strong
associations with a completely different Blue Moon. Or to put it in
other words "What are the odds?"
- I'm not in the habit of repudiating old texts merely because new
thinking has occurred since then. I prefer to re-interpret them to be
consistent with the new thinking so Thorloss wouldn't be totally
clueless in what he wrote about the Blue Moon.
However because Annilla is the Goddess of Secrets intent on obscuring
even her own secret identity, the precise relationship between her and
the Blue Moon Plateau is always going to be a Big Secret.
