Well, I think that Androgeus feels like something from outside the Orlanthi mythology, like something that isn't inspired by the Orlanthi/Heortling cultural matrix and making him come from Nandan rather than Nandan being influenced by him isn't the way to do it. In other words, Nandan in the myth would leave his home and go and find a secret from Androgeus rather than Androgeus being a bearer of the secret that was discovered by Nandan.
