Aerendir's & De'Azsh's join date?

Okay, I am super confused by this. All online sources state that Aerendir and De'Azsh didn't join the band until 2014. Even so, they are not listed as one of the personnel on Tales of Ancient Prophecies, which was released in June of 2014. However, I think this is information may be incorrect.

In most promotional material, dating all the way back to 2013, Aerendir can clearly be seen. Take this article, for example. I also don't know why there's only five members of the band here. It was my assumption that Blackwald, Lynd, Chrileon, Roberto, and Borne had been core members since the very beginning, but now I'm not so sure, because Lynd is here, meaning at least one core member is absent. I'm 99% positive that Lynd is the person on the far left, because in other pictures in the album booklet, you can see the slightest hint of blonde hair on the inside of the hood. See the video below, for instance, where you can see that Lynd had shorter hair during this time period. It would seem that Roberto is the one missing from this picture then: he only did studio work on Tales of Ancient Prophecies and never performed live with them. So for some unknown reason, De'Azsh is not pictured with the band, but Aerendir is, though neither received credit on the album.

A mere two months after this article and promotional image were published, Twilight Force performed their debut live show at Sala Live in Madrid, which can be seen in this video. Aerendir AND De'Azsh are both here. :) Roberto has never performed a show live with Twilight Force. Additionally, Lynd, for the first and last time in his career with Twilight Force, played live without a mask.

It is very clear from the reasons that I listed above that Aerendir was involved heavily with the band as early as September of 2013. De'Azsh is the same, except I can't find any solid proof for his contributions other than his appearance at Sala Live. It could be possible that all of the songs from Tales of Ancient Prophecies had already been written by this time period, so their playing just wasn't featured on the album, and they didn't receive credit?

To me that seems very strange. And I really don't know why other sites list him as not being involved with the record, or even a band member during this time period. He clearly was involved significantly. To a songwriting extent, I don't know how much. I also don't have a source to cite other than the evidence that I've gathered above. But I will change the timeline for this reason, and on the page for Tales of Ancient Prophecies as well. If anyone has anything suggesting that Aerendir wasn't a part of their debut album, I'd love to hear it because honestly I'm still kind of confused about it.
