I think the "ancient evil" part means that they were evil a long time ago, regardless of whether they were good before that. Basically, if they weren't good guys who Balor made evil, then they are Ancient Evils. The more recent good-gone-bad guys are Turned From The Light.

However, he did mention something like "an astute Heron Guard reported back to Alric that the Deceiver had called Shiver 'Ravanna', leading some historians to believe that the two may actually be one." So I think he heard. Besides, he calls her Ravanna right at the beginning:
"Ah, if it isn't Alric's lap dog! Will you bow to anyone who claims the throne of the Cath Bruig?"
"The path to retribution does make for strange bedfellows. Would you not agree, Ravanna?"
"Urgh!"
