Not necessarily. Remember, there is no such thing as a "Universal Orlanth Cult". You have little communities - clans, tribes, regional temples - all with their own cult. You leave that community, and you are out of contact with that cult. If you want to remain dedicated to that god (ie. get to use your Runes in an active manner) and keep the god happy with you, then you probably need to find a new community (although exceptions exist).

There are numerous shrines and temples to Orlanth throughout Theyalan lands as well as many holy places that no longer have a cult attached to them. Frex, it would like be no problem going from Boldhome to Safelster for our Orlanthi exile. Outside of the lands of the Theyalan peoples, not quite the same.
