Yep.

Yep.

The Aspect and Subcult are viewed as one "entity". So you are an Initate or Devotee of "Destor Adventurous", or "Hedkoranth Thunderous". You can call the ability "Devoted to Destor", or "Devoted to Destor Adventurous", it's the same thing. If you worship a subcult "through" an aspect different than its normal one, then you probably should include the Aspect name ("Destor Allfather") jut to keep your own records straight.

It's *possible* to not have an aspect or not have a subcult, but much more than "Orlanthi All" heortlings have an both aspect *and* a subcult in the "normal" way.
