You're assuming that "Whitewall falls, Ashart dies of heat" has the two events in chronolgical order. There's no guarantee it is. What if the death was before the fall of Whitewall?
Could have been a hot summer.....
And I still maintain that it is unreasonable to claim that because something isn't in KoS it can't be important Otherwise we have the conclusion that "Everything important is in KoS" so we know everything important. Suddenly our Gloranthas start to vary a lot less....... Or, more seriously, all future publications will only add detail, which I doubt. Hmm, does KoS mention the ship raising?
