In regard to Videssia remember that much of modern Videssia was established by Agatius Fossern, a banished and exiled Archmage of Mir.  He was Archmage during the height of Mirish expansion so the area were these tribes are were well within the Empire.  Agatius Fossern crimes were such that while the trail was known the procedings are securely looked away.  So he very well could be a connection between the two areas.
 
Also the Milkanuri are ancestral worshipers.  They beleave strongely in reincarnation.

It seems to me that in this religion we've found the origins of the cult of 
Phos-Skotos in Videssia. Combine this dualism with Creator worship and hatred 
of all forms of magic, and you can dimly see Phos-Skotos. The question is 
whether Nagasri acted through the Onagir to create Phos-Skotos and then have 
the religion grow beyond his control, or whether the religion was created by a 
mortal familiar with Nagasri in a form where he chose to not participate.
