I would distinguish clady from onda in an artwork. To follow a shiny human, a buzarg; to conform to that matrix in various ways: bards who do this grow part of a family of bards, a clady. An onda, though, is a big thing that lifts all of its humans as a unit and, past that lifting, cuts its mark for good. Clady against clady brings rivalry, as do wards of an onda against wards of a prior onda. But is a bard good or bad from any of this? No. In fact, much is to gain from knowing about far off kinds of making. You must abandon your notions of right and wrong ways of doing it--. Which is also an onda.
