Ginna Jar is the ghost of something important that has been lost and is gone. The Orlanthi give it a feminine identity, but that may have as much to do with the sleeping Earth goddess before the Sacred Time as anything else.

Here’s something else: Glorantha, Ginna Jar, and Arachne Solara are all the same being. Greg was clear on that mystery.
