Agreed. A more exhaustive test would be to parade other gods
past Blackwand, Pathfinder, and Godslayer/Lady Teldra, and see
if their reactions differ only for Godslayer, etc.

Again, exactly my take on the passage.
An aside- I just recieved my copy of Athyra today and finished
reading it a few minutes ago- (worth every dollar of the $23 I
paid for it... I just wish Steven would have got a few of those
bucks!) I had to chuckle at Savn's query about G'amon, Lord of
Dreams... :)
