I'm a little concerned about there being many cultures integrated, but only one being in charge of infrastructure, and the infrastructure being... crap.
(But like, please tell me Armadyleans are a part of those cultures)

If you're just going for some general lore in the area, then I think that what you have now is good. That Saradominist altar could have just been a dressed up Guthixian one. As foe it being run down, since they look at things long term, could it have been built to last? EG, Built to last 1000 years blah blah blah!... and they haven't done any spring cleaning since?
I wonder if that long term view could also explain them being there as a need for a mediator would be obvious to such a long view people.
And if the Seer's council dealt with inter-faction conflicts (when anyone bothers to tell them) they deal with it. That could explain Seer's Court house as well as it's very long legal arm.. All down to them being the "buffer" I mentioned earlier. The purpose of adventure is to shine light into dark places,
Poke monsters with a sharp stick, Then steal anything that isn't nailed down!

While I very much like the idea of past Fremennik origin, them being exiled for being seers would be strange since Peer the Seer is a thing and seems to be well accepted in Rellekka. Just going with the idea of a vision that caused the group to uproot and move would be fine in my eyes. It's simpler and is a bit more consistent with existing Fremennik characters.
As for the churches, I'd go with the idea that other seers around the world began to gather there after learning of the Fremennik group's settlement, allowing a mingling of cultures.
You must kill the Knights of the Round Table with this! It's high time to get rid of them and convert them to something new, so if you don't have time for that I highly suggest ignoring them for the time being.
Otherwise, I like everything you've said Kelpie - it's a good fit for the current Seers and it'll be nice to both see the city updated and get some love for it at the same time. Would love to see some mentions of the Sorcerer's Tower too, and maybe something with the Divination colony to have the Seers embrace it somehow.
Finally, how is this planned to be delivered? Book? Tale?!
