Or the Sun God ;->

True. However, it seems that Annilla (as per Troll Gods) has given up any "human" form she might have possessed, when she entered the soulless body of her last child by He Who Moves.

As was pointed out to me, he manifests as three visible stars. (Are there two more, invisible stars, one of Darkness (troll aspect) and one on the outside facing the Void (chaos monster aspect)?)

Maybe because the Blue Moon never was an acceptable heavenly body to the Dara Happans, and thus made her son not eligible as Emperor of Dara Happa. She did not try to emulate Annilla, or a repaired Annilla, IMO. What's the point in that?

It seems that she actually fought aspects of the Blue Moon to ascend into the Middle Air. Castle Blue was assaulted by her. (Maybe she did absorb some of its substance, too - that Fading Land has faded even more ever since...)
But then she did not ascend into heaven properly, only into Middle Air. As some dwarf almost said, "she hasn't stopped ascending yet."
