Why? In the third age, we will see a lost goddess mysteriously come back from old ages and quite well associated with chaos.

This goddess is strong enough to beat the Great Compromise, Great Gods,
and... What?
She strikes Orlanth and there is blood again from Him.
Hmmm, she is very well informed, isn't she?
Maybe what these orlanthi know come from what it seems a fact of the third age,
and maybe what every mortals have perceived only in the third age was in fact in
a precedent age.
It is the problem with the God's Plane and god themselves: Do not be so sure an event is preceding or forwarding another. I think it is a nonsense for a god.

Maybe this goddess is come back thanks to God's Learners who survived.
It's fully GAG from my point of view.
:p
But, well, I admit I'm afraid too that these Second Age books will not
as well as we could expected.
It's life and YGMV. But it exists. And it could give ideas
for the Third Age. Or bring new blood to the tribe.
