[QUOTE="Hellcow, post: 2647056, member: 15800"] Destroy it completely? I would say no. In my opinion, the planes are fundamentally tied into reality and can't be destroyed. Shavarath is a reflection of conflict, and as long as there's conflict, it will exist. Xoriat is, on some level, tied to the mind of every mortal creature, just as Dal Quor is. With that said, there are two possibilities I could see. First, you could sever Xoriat from Eberron, in the same way that the giants severed Dal Quor. the fact that it's happened to one plane implies that it could happen to another. Of course, the question is what sort of repercussions such an act could have on the rest of reality. Second, it's possible that you could find a way to "reset" Xoriat. Dal Quor has been said to go through cycles - and when the cycle changes, everything in the realm is transformed. The quori of the present day are not the quori that invaded before. The Dreaming Dark are seeking to prevent this change, while the Path of Light is all about accelerating it. So perhaps there's a way to perform a similar action in Xoriat. You can't destroy it, any more than you can destroy madness itself - but you might be able to destroy everything it has been to this point, wiping out the Daelkyr and their creations. The question, of course, is what would emerge in its place. You might get your personal revenge, but who knows what the consequences will be. I'd certainly call it an epic challenge, and I'd say researching the techniques the giants used to sever Dal Quor is probably the best approach - but with the potential backlash of the action, you might find all sorts of powers allied to stop such destruction.
