- Onaga dates way before Shinnok's fall (according to MK:A, Shao Kahn, as emperor of Outworld, trying to invade Edenia before Taven and Daegon were imprisioned, and both knew Shinnok as an Elder God by status);

- Knowing that, Onaga is older than Red Dragon foundation, also, he is known as "long forgotten", I mean, nobody even remember he was once ruler of anything (which makes him mad lol);

- Red Dragon is Edenian, expressely based on Caro. Actually, Shinnok's fall was the second event in Mortal Kombat chronological history. The first being the fall and separation of The One Being. However, you're point still stands.

Yes, you're right. Red Dragon is way after Onaga's death but, if you think about it, Onaga, in the form of Damashi, came to Shujinko. I think it might be fair to say that the avatar could have been in existence since the death of Onaga. He could've been influencing people for the longest time and Shujinko was the only one who could get the Kamidogu in the first place.

Red Dragon is actually an Earthrealm clan formulated by Daegon (an Edenian demigod). Mavado and Hsu Hao were both human.

Everything else I agree with. Not exactly.

When Argus is discussing with Delia just after imprisioning Taven and Daegon on Earthrealm, she asks her husband if Shao Kahn won't desire that realm.

He answers that it's not likely, he has more interests on Edenia.

That means that those events were before Edenia being merged into Outworld, and, as we know that Taven knew Shinnok as an Elder God, and even mentions that Shao Kahn has always tried to knoquer Edenia, so, unless the war on Heavens happened in 5 minutes, Shao Kahn's attempts to konquer Edenia were during Shinnok's rule as an Elder God.

And that makes Onaga's rule also during Shinnok's status as an Elder God, which makes the fallen Elder God's demise an event after many others, not the second event.
