See the difficulty with the God Time. According to the God Learners, the Avanapdur War was in the Chaos Age and ended with Thella's Net which brought the Dawn. And yet, the Austerity War and other events took place before the Dawn but clearly after the Chaos Age, and Avanapdur's Transitory Empire plays no role in those myths! A conundrum!
This sort of stuff drove the God Learners nuts. But every Gloranthan mythology has stories that don't fit correctly into a seemless chronology. Thus even though the God Learner mono myth was largely right, specific elements were always wrong.
