Quoting XLordOfLagg:

" To begin with, we know from Mount Targon, knowledge of these beings known as "Aspects", who have ascended the mountain, and returned imbued with ancient knowledge and vast power. These Aspects are unimagineably rare, and only occur every few generations. "

Doesn't this sound an awful lot like how the powerful beings of another culture were formed? Shurima, anyone? Ascension? Demi-Gods?

Not that I think RITO has actually thought this far into the lore to inporporate Shurima into the Aurelion Sol/Mount Targon situation - rather, I'm a little concerned that these "ascensions" are so comparible when they are from two very different lore scenarios. Not sure if intentional or if they just forgot that "ascending and returning with phenominal cosmic power" was already used for a bunch of Shuriman champ lore reworks and a champion release (Azir). Admitedly though, I think ascension makes more sense for a culture that lives on a damn mountain.
