I read a friend's copy of that supplement a long time ago & don't remember if that was the case (& I don't think it would make sense).
Old Sage 01-12-07, 07:45 PM	Yes, Glyth is a world in Realmspace -- the sixth planet in the Torilian system.

Old Sage 01-13-07, 10:57 PM	I apologise, of course. I do tend to forget sometimes that these types of older 1e/2e FR abbreviations aren't always as obvious or well-known. ;)
