Ok. I was misremembering something there then, I think.

I was referring to the fact that a yelmalio worshipper can do a quest where he, as Yelmalio, beats Zorak Zoran and retains his fire powers. This doesn't mean that every other yelmalian suddenly has fire powers, but it will still be true for him.

I was thinking that a person could quest for for a way to combine the magic from sources in all three worlds into one paradigm. I'm not sure there's actually any reason for such. This is just a thought experiment, and me trying to clarify the nature of the three otherworlds in my head.

Parhaps, again, the closest said quester would come would be to convert to the lunar religion and worldview.
