Well, since no one else has said anything, I will say that I think that it
is too
close to orthodox Orlanthi myth. IMG, at least, shamanistic worship of
major
spirits (like the "gods") is very here-and-now oriented. Their myths would
be
how the West King Wind helped our Grandfathers when those who prayed
to Yu-Kargzant {went away}[were all killed] in the Nights Of Horror, and
would go back no farther. Certainly little about the Godtime. More about
the (few, compared with Orlanth) spells that the spirit grants, and the
taboos
that it demands (no tribal Yu-Kargzant worship since before the last Sacred
Time, perhaps?) before it will grant its aid.
And yes, this sounds like the standard RQ2 writeup, but since shamans shift their primary spirits as they need, this is appropriate. J. Random Shaman looks at gods as just bigger than usual spirits, after all.
