You didn't, I must have picked up on 'enlightenment' from a nearby post, and fallen foul of the same confusion between the terms that was the thrust of my argument. My point is that Dara Happan 'illumination' and Nysalorian 'illumination' may be similar, in the same way that 'enlightenment' and 'illumination' are similar, without being the same just because of the name. I think an enlightened Kralorelan visiting Prax would be given a real hard time by any storm bulls that know about illumination.

I have not read FS, so was unaware of the expressed connection.
