I figured that the Forgotten story has since changed, like the Bloodstone history, Glint’s history and so forth.

All dates surrounding Glint is, still, "3,000 years ago", despite 10,000 BE being the date the Priory and mursaat ascribe for the previous dragonrise, which rather suggests the last dragonrise lasted ~8,000 years. Or the Priory+mursaat lore tablets are wrong and there were two previous dragonrises, or the dozens of references of Glint's purification occurring 3,000 years ago are wrong.

the eternal alchemy encompasses the entirety of the mists, not just Tyria.

Tell that to Corporal Bane.

Technically, if Bane were canon (we're not sure) then given current lore he's not from future Tyria, but would be from a fractal of possible future, just like the Grand High Sovereign from Infinity Ball. Given that there is no Commando and no Flame Legion having the power of sending golems back in time in the current reality, and the way timelines seem to function in the GWverse is that the future is malleable but only one possibility will be "the future", meanwhile the past isn't malleable at all.
