I think so, too. (Is this Idea coming from me?) But IMHO there is problem how Pentans comprehend their Betrayal against Traditional Way, and they don't have neighborhood such Centaurs. So they required another set of mythology which fit (and justified) form of their Modern Style.

In very Simplified Form, We know Kargzant went to Monsterland, and he hadn't
returned back from there.
Because they think End of World is Peloria and Kralorela, never know Sea and
Ocean. They maybe don't understand Yelmic Myth "Travel to Underworld".
Kargzant went to Monsterland for Destroying the Source of Monsters. Maybe he
didn't die as Christ of Nestrians.
And as Stellar, Kargzant is coming back to world from a Eye of Enemy, Dara
Happans (GROY)

Perhaps as Daxdarius of Pelanda or Manimat of Darjiin, Hyalor maybe was Name of Dynasty.

I remember several times I persistently commented about this topic. Maybe I
merely try
to salvage older fragments to fit these mishmash with unnecessary effort.
Vadrus "That woman think and teach only Mistake, I never hear her saying, again."
Map of Broken Council Guidebook is quite Incorrect for 1st Age Reference, they used 3rd Age Maps as Gazetter.
I think former names are orlanthi Names for Enemy Gods, Latter is Original Name about them.

Death Bed of King Suleiman (Solomon)
King Solomon was in the Death Bed, though he well knew his kingdom in the process to Disintegration and his unworthy son Rehoboam was not qualified for this task, he don't take any action even in the situation to confront his all working into the Collapse. He still could order and control all his subjects who well knowing his wisdom without moving his finger, but he don't have intention to do so, Only his eye still sparkled and waited someone visit him before Death.
And it came before his bed as Image of Burning Turf, like once he appeared before Moses.
"Solomon, why you betrayed me? I never wanted to punish you."
"In contrary, was it you who betrayed me? My Master. You promised me Wisdom which could bestow me the ability to distinguish Good and Evil."
"I think you got such Wisdom."
"Please Consider about why I wanted such Privilege so stubbornly, I thought it would bestow me the Wisdom of Heaven which lead me to your Palace of Heaven, but you only give me a Leftover which connected to merely a Craftiness of Earth. So it only leads me Despair and Self-Destruction."
"Do you really think such Destiny linked to Wisdom and Knowledge of Human? No, that is blessing under the Name of "Faith". You remember why your ancestor Adam expelled from Source of Four Rivers."
"If so, why Angels taught me Secret of Kabbalah and Zohar? I remember Two Trees existed in Garden of Eden, Tree of Wisdom and Eternal Life. But why my Wisdom betrayed me in the Meaning of "There is No New Thing under the Sun?""
"You learned many things about beyond Human Power, so you are now called Master of Demons and Baal-zebub (zebul). But you know you are in the Lies which you created of yourself for Deceiving youself and your People. Your Father David also fell from Righteous Way for Another Reason."
"Maybe that is Also a Fatal Error to creat Errors for Understanding Errors....My Wives keeo worshiping their Various Homeland Goddesses, Milkom, Astarte, Baalat, Isis....I can't say them to try to stop it. Even you may removed Ten from Twelve of My Kingdom from My Son...I know there is No New thing under the Sun...Why I should reconsider about such Foolish Things?"
"Please, leave me alone. I control various Trade with Delicate Skill of Negotiation...and swam among Greater Kingdoms, Assyria, Babylonia, Egypt, Crete...your Wisdom taught me to dirty intercourse their Pagan Goddesses for
Peace, and now you want to Punish me for Crime of this Hollowness. See my Old Age, and bygone after drop me to Valley of Hinnom."
God didn't try to answer him, he left.
Or once he seems to have been defeated by Hand of Israel-Jacob, he wanted to
argue with him in the Heaven. But now, all things was done. Solomon sighed
and fell into Depth of Hypnos.
