Existing in a universe that doesn't actually have gods might be a slight disadvantage to him, of course. If he did.... trouble is, he'd be trying to tell the gods what to do, not the other way round :(

Doesn't his family traditionally go for
ancestor-worship?

Oh, yes! Nice! Though trying to role-play Miles in real time is a challenge I'd rather not face myself.

Miles and his family are worth looking at for their views on Honour, too. They make most Truth cultists look very lax. Well worth raiding for ideas so as to give your Humakti some really extreme obsessions.
