Zin Letters #3 (FIN 2008)


This is the wild eastern edge of the Far Place, where battered yet hardy Orlanthi eke out their lives during times of turmoil. Squeezed between the Sons of Light and ancient lands of Shadow, they cling to tradition.

Themes in this issue:

  • Challenges of the newly claimed territory
  • Tribal and religious schism
  • Disintegration and reforming of clans
  • History of the eastern Far Place
  • Bachad Tribe and Garrik Clan
  • Cults and societies of marginal lands

The rather grim outlook is balanced by a glimpse on the Orlanthi sweat lodges and other aboriginal traditions.
