Lore is a mercurial thing, it can be changed to fit whatever the needs are. A common one used in FFXIV is that the fight is you reliving it in memory, or reliving it through song, or as Ravenguard said there are even Allagan holographic training simulations. There are always a million ways to fit something into the lore of a fantasy game.
