I like this.
I had one idea that I asked about on the [Herowars] list was that shrines
could/would take the form of the building the housed the occupation
associated with it.
- The Hunters' Lodge would be Odayla's shrine (or Ormalaya's). - The grannery would be Harst's shrine. - Pella would have a Kiln for a shrine. - Et cetera.
BTW are there any sources for the runes in TR, ST and BA apart from the two font types at the Issaries website??
... Aeolia, where the storm-clouds have their home, a place teeming with furious winds from the south. Here Aeolus is king, and in a vast cavern he controls the brawling winds and the roaring storms, keeping them curbed and fettered in their prison. Resentfully they rage from door to door in the mountainside, protesting loudly, while Aeolus sits in his high citadel, sceptre in hand, taming their arrogance and controlling their fury.
