<<Far Storm, headed by Utguard wished to use their power and knowledge to
help Orlanthi in the world, they wanted to help Argrath throw off the evil
Red Empire.
Closed Storm, led by Gaid the Stern, a tired old man, thought that the outside world had nothing to do with them and they owed it nothing. They served the Storm in their own way and that should not change.
Old Storm, led by Kjal Beastbase, wants to Stormwalkers to support King Bryon. Kjal had fough against Telmori under Jon and was against aiding Argrath because he had allied with the Telmori.
The Heroic Storm, led by [.....], thought that this world was only a mask of the Otherside and that the war should be fought and won there. They did not care for kingdoms or clans. >>
*Lightbringer's Quest (Harmast, Aringor, Garundyer)
In Thunder Rebels, there is Annual Ritual for Sacred Time. (Orlanthi believe
the Doom like Great Darkness struck again them if they could not properly
perform this ritual.) modelled LBQ for every Orlanthi clan. But it was
superficial ritual enacting for maintain the World of Cosmic Compromise
properly (though Peter Metcalph said there is no Cosmic Compromise Myth
before Dara Happans joined the Second Council for creating God. Some says
Hengall's "I fought, we won" Myth occupies similar position for their
society before Harmast induced it.) I think some of failed attempt taught us
the difficulty of this Quest like Karsten and Kallyr. And there is Seven
Mother Ritual brought back Red Moon from Hell. (I think Arkat was rescued
from Hell unintentionally by Harmast as an Eclispse against Bright Empire,
as Orlanth brought back Sun, and Argrath brought back "Pain Star" from Hell.
And Aringor brought back Incarnate of Life..Uleria? But this idea is
perfectly from my own.)
Ernalda's Hero Quest (Lifebringer's Quest?) Worldwide
*Second Son's Mythology (I fought, we won: Orlanthi Version)
Each Initiation Ritual to Adulthood, My image for it (Atlas and Hercules)
might not be inappropriate for Greg's image of "Harmast's Saga". (I read it
in Tales #18 Greydog Campaign Scenario) But it should teach happiness of
responsibility and duty inside their adulthood, and IMHO every Initiands are
tested as once Hengall was tested.
*Well of Wisdom
Orlanth once tried to gain Wisdom for rule his Kingdom (Teleportation
Power?) and he fought in the Realm of Water and Sea Gods (Wachaza (Worcha?)
and Magasta) and finally got a cup of Wisdom and found Mastakos at the
bottom of his cup, and he could not succeed Lightbringer's Quest, Bath of
Nelat if he didn't experience the trial of Bath of Nelat at that Quest. See
Syranthir's Quest Many Myth for Questing Wisdom
*Other Hero Quests of Orlanthi (TR & ST, KoDP)
Jarani's Staff it vs Antirius Precept: both are final judgement but
different: Limited to only Heortling (not Haranding)
