Yeah. I look forward to seeing how Issaries handle this when they publish (non-fanwise), in scenario/'episode' form:

1. a known historic event of the Hero Wars;
2. the HeroQuest related to a known myth.

That should help reassure us as to the flexibility and scalability of the system (just as Barbarian Adventures did by introducing automatic augments to replace Narrators frotting around with buckets of dice).
