Count Ranalc is CN. And he is very much a god of darkness and shadow.
While this is true, how much one can worship Count Ranalc is debatable given how he's vanished. I believe his faithful could still draw power from him whole he was in exile, but now that he's seemingly GONE gone, I don't remember if they specified what, if anything, changed. The Eldest are weird like that. And The Count was a d*** anyway, even by Eldest standards. Up there with The Lantern King! :P

He can still grant power, this is specially called out.

I definitely hope the coming Divine books shed some light about what happens in this kind of corner cases.

(It even *feels* Daemonic.)Szuriel feels like she was responsible for the Balkans conflict and World War 1.
How will Szruiel be involved?
I generally shy away from "supernatural evil was the cause for real-world disaster"; so I choose to believe the incredibly entertaining instead possibility of "Szuriel had nothing to do with the start of WWI, and alternated the whole time between mentally kicking herself for not thinking of it first, and taking notes for stuff she can do in the future".

The association of Szuriel with the First World War doesn't come from nowhere. Her writeup was published in Rasputin Must Die!, after all. At the same time, neither she nor any of her followers play any role in that adventure or in the Reign of Winter Adventure Path. Although given some of the characters that took leading roles in the Russian Civil War, particularly in the Far East (Semyonov, Sternberg, et al.), one would be hard-pressed to say Daemonic agents, witting or otherwise, had no hand in events.

It comes from how Szuriel is associated with the most pointless and bloody of wars with no glory in them. Like World War 1 is commonly associated with. It is seen as a pointless land struggle that got out of hand and infected most of the world.
