<< Thus we have always known, from the early days of RQ, that there were many
more magical symbols used in Glorantha than the God Learner runes. What I do
not know is where all these new runes come from. Are they variations on the
GL runes? Are they collections of runes taken from different cultures? It

would be nice to know.>>

     They appear to be primarily the latter, as many of the runes used to
decorate the books are from the culture specific rune fonts, such as Malkioni
font and Vithela font. The runes in the Core Rune font are presumably the GL
ones, and include a few that are 'new' since RQ.

Forward the glorious Red Army!
