Lore Discovery??

So, I was looking for stuff on lore and I came across this: http://www.reignofgaming.net/forums/league-of-legends/the-art-of-league/38762-hecarim-is-the-ruined-king-of-the-shadow-isles

And I got to reading and then I decided to do some dungeon delving into the lore myself, and here's what I've come up with: Karthus has nothing to do with the situation. He controls the black marsh, and that's about it. But I found some more connections that might prove morde is the king, and not hecarim. I believe thresh and maoki also tie into this. So in the shadow isles lore http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Shadow_Isles it states that the king basically wanted the altars to be unlocked unleashing life and death and essentially ruining the twisted treeline. Soon after his daughter dies and the shadow aisles becomes terrible. Now maokai is useless other than the fact that he was creating from the separation of life and death, via the altars. Centuries pass, thresh arrives, as does yorick, and Karthus. Only thresh is important. Once a jailer, now the chain warden imprisons souls. Now, in threshes lore, http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Thresh/Background it states that he likes to torture his souls. Imagining the kings soul stayed all those centuries, thresh would probably find it a very important soul. He was said to torture souls even after death, and, being a jailer, what a better way to torture a soul than to put it in a body like prison. Not only making the king pay for his crimes against the shadow isles, but making him suffer for it. I believe that morde was the king and this was his punishment. In his lore http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Mordekaiser/Background near the end it states maybe his armour was a prison. This would all make sense. It also said he might have been a war general, and what better general than the king himself?? Now onto hecarim. Now, here's my theory on him. In life, he was a second in command general to the king, since his lore says he had his spectral riders like a general ordering his troops. http://leagueoflegends.wikia.com/wiki/Hecarim/Background . Now, because hecarim is so powerful, he wasn't brought back to life by thresh, but instead, maokai. I believe that the altars stating not to trust morde is because in life, hecarim didn't support his unlocking of the altars, which was selfish. I think the spirits believe the ruined king will do something selfish again. Since hecarim wouldn't have supported him the first time, he wouldn't do it a second. Now, I say maokai, because Karthus doesn't like life itself, so why make such a living life?? Maokai would've supported the face that hecarim didn't like what the king was doing, so he took some of the power he inherited from the treeline into fusing hecs living soul, with the body of a horse creature. Just let all this sink in, and tell me what you think.

All of this is sooo inaccurate
