Not all truths

Nikolai smiled slightly, "They use the exact same stars. It's just flipped perception of position depending on what side of the world you are on. And that's probably why they end up with regional stories. The same stars from a different angle leading to a difference in cultural significance." Different time periods and different priorities.
It truly was fascinating to him. "The first Falcon is a noble guardian, who proudly rises from the ground to soar and watch over its people in the stories. Yet the second one who plummets to the ground is believed to be a bringer of death and decay. Same stars, different direction, opposite meanings. It's wild. Not all of the discrepancies are this blatant, but you get the gist." Some of the clashing stories of other constellations just had minor differences and discontinuities. Very few were as blatantly polarized as Falcon.
Honestly the clashing details were more interesting than the stories themselves sometime.
