Nick gives a synopsis on where Syranthir's Lions came from.
>Talor afterwards refounded Loskalm, and took his plucky allies with him.
He refounded Akem actually. Although Loskalm started up around this time, Talor seemed to have nothing to do with this.

It is possible but it seems unlikely IMO. Talor is compared favourably to Arkat in many sources and even a Seshnegi Knightly Family (the Vandervasses in the Western WMFTM - Genertela Players Book) claims Talor as one of their Patrons. And given that you say some of the lions came from Seshnegi Knights with Rampart-Gules-on-their-shields, this implies that the Seshnegi and the God-Learners didn't hate lions then.
