According to Greg, at a Lore Auction, Ducks were thrown in for
comic relief.
My personal beliefs are that the ducks have been around since
the GodTime, but have lost their ties to Keets. in 'my' Glorantha, there
is a tribe of trolls that tell stories about the ducks and baboons. They
are friendly to the baboons, because they used to be men/tied to the Man
tune. But during the GodTime they refused to help _____ the Chaos God,
and were cursed into their present condition. It's the other way around
for the ducks, they refused to help fight Chaos, and were cursed. This
group lives far in the east of Dagori Inkarth, and every once in a while
a raiding party travels far west to Duck Pond, etc, to kill a few ducks
and make duck feather fans.....
Patrik Sandberg is to be congradulated upon a very nice Orlanthi
Holiday piece. But, being Kalikos retentive, I couldn't help noticing
that one of the six masked Storm Voices is referred to as the IceBreaker
Mask. ??? Patrick, could you please explain this? The IceBreakers are
a cult that operates in the north of the Lunar Empire, and are probably
little known of (if at all) in Dragon Pass..... Feel free to Email me
privately if you don't want to go into arduous detail on the Digest.
Andrew
