This includes raising up islands into the sky to create a haven for other persecuted people to go to. The myth is rather important as the Vanu Vanu reference it as the reason they know Primal Bismark isn't the real Bismark, so they're fine with helping the WoL kill him. The real Bismark would never go around eating the islands he himself created or go around persecuting people himself.
