But that "moment" wasn't mantling Shinryu, it was his fight with WoL.

In fact, frankly, I actually don't think he was referring to Ala Mhigo when referencing "reprising that moment" at all. I think he was talking about the Final Days and the Sundering. I mean he was literally just referencing his dreams of the fall of Amaurot and saying how he'd set the entire world to the pyre. And if that's the case, he should naturally want to play the role of the entity that actually WON that fight.

Additionally, there's absolutely no way the civil war in Garlemald is over. The Bozja stuff, for example, is an extension of that. Even if they killed the Populares (Which, why become Ashai just to kill them anyway?) absolutely nobody should be willing to follow Zenos. We see that he literally had to slaughter people in the palace just to take up residence there. I don't even think he has his own legion left, so anyone taking his orders is probably doing so under the threat of death.
