Oh, so they are that tied into the Storm Tribe? I was expecting more of a totally independent* Majestic Spirit, more akin to the Grazers vs. Yelmic religion. We already see an independent storm in Doburdan, so I expected that there would be more, especially going into the spirit realm.

• I suppose no storm power in Glorantha is totally independent of Orlanth, given the runic linkages, or something like. But not mythically linked in any apparent way.

So there would be storm tribes and sun tribes then? As opposed to minority groups in certain tribes worshipping storm?
