Except in that they are close tot he same. They have the same powers and everything, the difference is that True Ascendants are not tied to their organization. He could leave Celest and still remain an Ascendant, and Celest could choose to raise another Ascendant while he was around.
Basically, yes, Celest got a citizen who was the first to become an Ascendant, for free. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that; he did win the contest after all.

Except that, say the Seals weaken later today and someone from Glomdoring completes the contests and becomes the next True Ascendant... Glomdoring didn't have to do anything for that person either, so wouldn't they have gotten an Ascendant, for free?
I guess I just don't understand how you're saying an org got an Ascendant for free when it wasn't even the kind of Ascendant that they would have had to pay for anyway. Prolly just my own confusion though.

Though the funny thing is, back during the Ascendancy Trials, there was debate about whether people should support only the contestants from their nation, and many (maybe including me) argued it'd be better not to be so limited, as the Ascended God didn't have to end up supporting his original nation of origin. After all these twists and turns, it ends up he will go back to being part of it after all.

Celest didn't get anything for free, heh. I do hope Illyarin remains with Celest. Malicia and Soll were close friends before he rose! And to be honest, I was pretty sad he won.
