I presume the next bit is the spoiler so I've left some blank space.

I've recently been reading a novel based on Germanic mythology
where the gods physically walk the earth and interfere with
human lives. It got me thinking about how that would work in
Glorantha and I realised that disciples are effectively their
god in the mortal world. So it's quite possible that Kallyr's
lover is both a disciple of Rigsdal and the god himself.
This also raises the issue of disciples doing things which are
wrong or even incomprehensible in the context of the mortal
world yet perfectly in keeping with the god's view of things.
