(Is there anyone who can be spoiled about babylon 5 nowadays?)
In the television series Babylon 5 there were vorlons, a race of beings of
light, beings of order, billions of years old. In certain ways they resemble
gloranthan gods of light especially Dara Happan ones. In Babylon 5 the only
vorlon on the station, Kosh, died. Later a new vorlon came, it stated its name
was Kosh. "We are all Kosh", it claimed.
The descendants of Aether are all beings of light. They have connection with each other. Gloranthan solar pantheon forms a collective. Perfect Yelmic harmony can only thus be achieved.
Yelmic Harmony actually broke with The Coming of Umatums. Storm gods are very much individuals and could never fit in or be part of Yelmic society.
In solar pantheon many things can be one being. (Yelm has his parts) In storm tribes one being can do many things. (Orlanth has his aspects)
There may be truth in Greg's early thinkings of Vadrus and Shargash being the
same being. Shargash both is many things yet has several aspects.
(I have pet theory about this one which I'm still nursing... sons-switch...
Anyway, we are all Yelm. After all, there's a reason why Dayzatar, golden age god of understanding KNOWS that only He exist, period.
