Question of Tanta Prav's ethics in war & Tanta Sila's actions

We know that the Purge of Rheddig involved the Athian armies hunting down and killing any remaining Rheddig in Athia, "soldiers and civilians alike," as stated in the lore. This meant no taking prisoners of war and no Rheddig refugees remaining...as there'd be no Rheddig left alive in Athia.

That makes me wonder what Tanta Prav's ethics and code of justice were during the war with the Rheddig to permit such a purge. However, I also know this is set in a Middle Ages-like era, where modern concepts of wartime ethics aren't guaranteed to exist.

Would there have been any disagreements between Tanta Prav and Tanta Sila? Regardless, any disagreements probably wouldn't be public to Athians, considering how that'd affect morale.

Prav seems quite strict with her ethics. Meanwhile, Sila seems more in line with doing whatever it takes for a successful outcome in a war. I think Sila was described as honorable in the lore...but Athians are obviously unreliable narrators when it comes to their Tantas. And Sila was also described as merciless to her enemies. Furthermore, Sila's realm was described as a "realm dedicated to War" in the lore.

I wish Forspoken had more stupid little side quests like Borderlands…. I’d love to deliver burgers to the people of Cipal or crash a Breakzombie wedding

Forspoken • Athia's Tantas

The powerful sorceresses who once ruled over Athia's four realms. Each embodied virtue, which shaped how they chose to rule. They were much loved by the people of Athia, who enjoyed lives of plenty under their guidance.

...do... do you ever think that maybe the reason Olas stole her peoples' memories was because she knew she was going mad and didn't want them to be solely reliant on her the way Prav's people are? That she wanted them to not remember her, but remember instead their own curiosity and drive to learn and teach?

I just keep thinking about that one lady in Cipal who's so distraught because she doesn't know how to tell right from wrong without Prav to show her. And I keep thinking about Treahy and this other lady in the Archives, both of whom say their memories of Olas are hazy and faded, but they both still clearly have the drive to learn (and teach, in Treahy's case). And maybe Olas realized that the ties the people had to their Tantas may be detrimental to their survival, that they were too reliant on the Tantas and maintaining that reliance would undermine not only their survival, but also their ability to thrive, so she took that tie away while she still could.
