Thank you, Dovahsebrom,

I think that it is a very interesting idea and that it seems to have an analogue in the evolving religious lore as it works it's way though various historical pantheon myths in our own world - particularly in the way that the new significant figures of divinity consistently assume the most significant roles of the old. On closer reading I'm not sure that "apotheoses" is really an effective reference to this either and I'm yet to come across an existing term referring precisely to the transference of role from the old deity to the new incoming deity. Perhaps "Mantling" might wind up being a good pick for this, after all.
