Of course not. But are we going to start assuming that gods have affinities for no reason, and are linked with runes willy-nilly? Of course not. So the fact that he's both Death and Honor is important in my view. Why? My suspicion is that because there is a belief that Death wielded carelessly causes problems. This seems mythologically sound in Heortling belief.

I have no problem with that being a truism across all versions of Humakt.
