Except that in the Thanatari myth there is no awareness that he was fighting his father. The battle is a particularly well-known one (the Glory of the Black Sun) yet the people west of the wastelands and the Thanatari themselves do not know that the other side is the Devil of Kralori mythology.

I've already given evidence as to the affirmative.

Even to the extent where he is chaotic in some places and not chaotic in others (Kralorela, Pelanda)?
