Yes, by definition the creation of linear time happened during a dragon break. That's why dragon breaks are sometimes referred to as "the Middle Dawn" - it's a return to a situation like the Dawn Era. Any attempt to stitch together a narrative is an act of creation (not retelling) by the storyteller. They could all be true, but they could all be wrong depending on which way you look at it.

Note also that imparting truth in much of TES is frequently associated with a violent act. That should tell you something about what is necessary to form a single narrative.
