It would be almost unprecedented. And it would be extremely hard to manage, wouldn't it? It would take years - decades, at least, of people consciously shifting the reason they worship or bring offerings. If you're the kind of spirit who's dependent on human adoration, though, I think it would be more of a step-by-step process. You would shift with their desires over time.

[She frowns in thought.]

Historically, gods can take on new aspects or epithets - not like a... complete change, but an addition. You might be able to just spread your existence out a little more. You can be Parsee, the Jealous. But 'Jealousy' comes from something else: a desire for a deeper relationship. So you could also begin to be... Parsee, the Devoted. And when spurned, you act in your other capacity.

That's the kind of thing that could arise over time.

[Wow Viridi almost sounds like an intelligent human being and not a childish gremlin.]
