Uroxi may 'sunder family ties' (Storm Tribe, p. 63), so I thought Urox did it in the past and Ragnaglar was no more kin if Urox killed him. YGWV but Urox generating Chaos is a bit strange for me.
> On a closely related topic, do the Heortlings have a myth about the first kinslaying?
There is a myth of first kinslaying In Storm Tribe pp. 205-207 "How to solve kinstrife", with Vadrus slaying Barntar the Plowman.
But probably there are some different, logically-incompatible myths. For example, in Thunder Rebels, p. 90 we are told that Gagarth initiated kinstrife and was outlawed by Orlanth.
