Ragnaglar is dead. He's not mentioned for the same reason that Wakboth isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I missed this bit of information so far. The fight between Wakboth and the Storm Bull is mentioned and described in several places. But the dead of Ragnaglar seems to be mentioned in the cult description of Mallia (in Cults of Terror) as a simple statement only. Are there any further descriptions available of this fight between Ragnaglar and the Storm Bull? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really, cult of Stormbull has Quote He taught Death's virtues to his people when he slew vile Ragnaglar with his horns of iron.

Although as @David Scott notes the only text we have is that Storm Bull slew Ragnaglar, I personally like the idea that it was actually Wakboth who slew and devoured Ragnaglar as his first deed of evil. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Scott Posted August 20, 2017 Author Share Posted August 20, 2017 (edited) I also think not much is said of Storm Bull's act as it was technically kinstrife.

Unless Ragnaglar had been outlawed for his heinous deeds. I think that Orlanth would have been happy that someone else killed Ragnaglar, saving him from killing the mad god himself. Also, not many gods were left alive at that time, so a bit of kinstrife was the least of people's problems. Quote Simon Phipp - Caldmore Chameleon - Wallowing in my elitism since 1982.

The same point is made in the King of Dragon Pass computer game in which Chalana Arroy manages to stop Storm Bull from killing Ragnaglar on the grounds of the same.

Steve Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 p.154 refers to the "Hero Planes" (plural), whereas the rest of the Guide only refers to the "Hero Plane" (singular). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checking the backlog, I found use primarily of the plural form in Hero Wars Introduction to Glorantha and HeroQuest 1st Edition, but only singular Hero Plane in HQ Glorantha and Sartar Kingdom of Heroes (the only Moon Design books using this phrase). My explanation over on the other thread referred to the earlier usage as in HeroQuest 1, but that may have been a factor of the Separate Worlds dogma. 1 Quote Telling how it is excessive verbis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
