Fair enough, although one of the things that appealed to me about Glorantha was the way that a given phenomena had a plethora of different explanations in different cultural systems (i.e. the Darkness(es), the Sunstop). It's possible that I have become overly enthused with this.

Ah! I got the impression that the statement in ILH1 might be *deliberately* misleading, rather coincidentally misleading.

I'm trying to build up a picture of the way Holayans see things and I am looking for interpretations on Vinga that might fit (is she more like the Esrolian Vinga than the Sartarite Vinga?)

If Holay's Red Woman might not be Vinga, who might she be?
