But I (and others) think so, or at least that there were different _cults_ or modes of worship which fused. There is ample evidence of this, starting with the animosity between Storm Voices and Wind Lords.
>How about Kyger Litor - is she Kyger Litor and Karrg?
KL is a realization or belief that Uz is One, that all ancestry lines converge. The best image/idea of KL comes from Trollpak, and is that She's one of those giant figures made up of many normal-sized figures, as one sometimes sees in medieval illustrations. From a God Learner perspective, KL is a legal fiction, or an article of faith that Uz have a common ancestor and are not polyphyletic (or howe'er one spells that word).
