[Glorantha] Origins of Humakt

On the origins of Humakt, my position is that he was part of the Storm Gods pantheon and so was worshipped by the Vingkotlings and the Vadrudi _during_ the Storm Age. Although Dragon Pass contained most of his worshippers shortly after the dawn, there were still a few holy places to Humakt elsewhere (in Ralios and Fronela).

As for whether the cult spread north or south after the dawn, I think that both spreads occurred. There was the Theyalan effort which radiated outwards but got tainted with Arkatism and became unpopular. Then in the Imperial Age, the Carmanian Dragonslayers spread a revived cult southwards, of which elements were taken by the Heortlings into their religion.
