I think the worship of Little Brother and Sword Man are good models
for the religion of the Wind Children. As with the Waha pantheon
concentration works normal for the core practices and less well for
the uncommon (misapplied) practices. If Nar Sylla magical specialists
are stronger with Kolating spirits then I think that fits rather well,
after all their particular trick of embodying a spirit within a wind
to act independently only works with Kolating spirits anyway.
