Were not talking about mantling in a literal definiton. In TES, mantling is basically becoming so similar to a god that you take their place in the universe. "The Stormcrown manted by way of the fourth: the steps of the dead. Mantling and incarnation are separate roads; do not mistake this. The latter is built from the cobbles of drawn-bone destiny. The former: walk like them until they must walk like you. This is the death children bring as the Sons of Hora."
