Indubitably. It's newness varies from person to person depending on
whether or not they were at Tentacles last year. The Kralori are
well stuck into the temple swallowing dragon plot. This was re-iterated
again this year, but details won't be forthcoming untill it's all
made plain in the campaign books.
Other cool things to look out for in the future :
There's a Glorantha spanning Chaotic plot which is swapping chaotic
nasties from different places in Glorantha around. The idea is that
(for example) Praxian Storm bulls are optimised for destroying Praxian
manifestations of Chaos, like Broos and Scorpion men. So Broos in
Prax get swapped with some unnamed horrors in Pamaltela, where nobody
has ever heard of Broos before and they don't know how to fight them.
Nick has specultaed that the Red Emperor disapears because they mistake
him for a Chaotic Horror and inflict him on some unsuspecting bunch of
foreigners, much to his bemusement.
Lots of major events that appear isolated are actualy connected, sometimes
in more ways than one. Also many Bad Things, such as the Kingdom of
War, have more than one cause.
One Good Thing is that Greg has realised the error of his ways and
appreciates the need for a Praxian player's book. It's not exactly
top priority as he has other projects in the pipeline which he
sensibly wants to get finished, but he does want it produced sooner
rather than later.
