Something is going on, and I'm not quite sure what. Has something happened to Lathander, in the D&D mythology? Perhaps 5th edition Lathander is gone? *shrugs*

Lathander is 100% around in 5e. His worshippers are around and in one of the campaigns he even blesses you permanently if you help one of his followers find peace.

He is the poster God for light clerics and nuetral good paladins... he seriously needs to be included.
