And this isnt? Primordials were hiding on a split continent and Asmodeus turns up out of no where and becomes a greater god?
Come on.....I'm not saying the time of troubles was bad, but this is even worse.
As I understood it, Abeir wasn't just a "split continent" but a other dimension of Toril.
Remember that story about two woman arguing about a child and king David proposing to cut the child in half so that everyone got a part? Ao did exactly that. When the Gods and Primordials fought about creation Ao split it into two and each got a half.
And Asmodeus became a god because he killed Azuth. When Mystra was killed Azuth was thrown into the Astral Sea and so where the entire 9 Hells as the planes reformed. Asmodeus used his chance, killed a weakened god and ascended himself.
