[QUOTE="AbdulAlhazred, post: 7433056, member: 82106"] Yeah, that seems like how I figured it happened. You could imagine it as like a lark, young foolish Pelor, Ioun, and Tharizdun pull some stupid stunt, find the gate, look THROUGH, and Tharizdun (at least) sees SOMETHING. They close it again and agree to shut up about it (this is pretty much the plot of how many movies with a kid that knows the 'dark secret'). Whatever Tharizdun saw, it eats at his mind. Presumably he got a whiff of that ultimate evil and eventually he just HAD to go back. Maybe his fall was sort of like Melkor's, he was just 'first amongst many' and couldn't stomach getting along with the rest. OTOH maybe the thing was whispering in the back of his mind, pushing him over the edge. Finally he can't stand it anymore and he goes back to retrieve the shard, at which point he learns the terrible truth about how he's been used, and runs off to the far ends of the Elemental Chaos with it. By this time the Dawn War has at least begun. Once he sets off his rotten egg in the Primordial's pool they get REALLY pissed and things hot up fast. [/QUOTE]
