New Hero Aeos has been introduced. It's not clear, if she's still human but she's The Saint.

So, Aeos represents the Church of the Sun? Will the fight between churches of the Sun and the Moon be part of the story?

Did they even fight in Jadame? We saw their fights in Antagarich but in MM8 we learned that their main enemy was necromancers in Jadame.

The Jadamean Necromancers are still considered part of the Church of the Moon, it's just they lean more towards the Mad Science side of the scale (and in MM8 are relatively benign compared to their Antagarician counterparts - they're more fighting a defensive war than an offensive one, it's just with both the Nightshade Brazier and the Skeleton Transformer they don't have to worry about defense quite so much...)

It's circulating in the lore thread, yet and likely purposefully, without any official reply.

To me, chance of Sun vs Moon is high. They promised earlier to keep in accord with Jadame (MM8) lore.

Keandra is likely combination of names Keisha (African, meaning "Favourite") and Sandra (Greek, meaning "Defender of mankind").

Light cavalry jousting? Does not sound like the best use for light cavalry. Anyway, while the hero biographies are nice to read, is there any information on game mechanics emerging? Like how skills and abilities actually work?

All released heroes in so far are for skirmish mode. This bit of information, heh that sounds like token, was provided by alphyna.

Knowledge is everything, what you need to grasp in a momentum!

Once lost, forever lost, or ghost?

There are some new videos over YT, but it's hard for me to determine if they deliver some new information. Eventually this will come in english too.
