So I asked earlier if it is possible for a priest to change gods, if any of the skills they got as a priest of one god was transferable to another, and was given a pretty solid "no." But I've been wondering about the "almost and maybes?"<snip>
If the question is specifically for the LoA campaign, the answer is a solid NO. Henry's been very clear about this. Changing gods requires a crisis of faith. Even the type of "enlightenment" you describe in terms of Fire Dragon / Nier is still a crisis of faith.
If you're talking about a home campaign then it's whatever the GM thinks is appropriate.
From a mechanics perspective you shouldn't suddenly unlearn a skill and pick up an equivalent number in a new one. A favored skill is one that particular god's followers train in, so it would make more sense to gain access to it or be required to have access to it in order to finish the conversion. As I don't see this happening outside of a home campaign, again it comes back to the GM.
