Is possible to relate Vishnu-Narayana to Apam Napat? As a Water-laying diety?
 
And the Kaurava Duryodhana? He fled and hid himself in a lake, for he was said to possess the power of remaining under water. It's similar to *Apam Nepo:t legends (Apam Napat, Neptunus, Nechtan). If Duryodhana was a reflex of Apam Napat, his nature could be a sort of giant, or vanir-like deity.
