The universe might even have been very different if evil was not a cosmic force, something we might not even understand (as we live in a world evil is part of?).So, the final goal is not to kill off all Primordials, or to destroy all Demons and Devils. It is to find this seed of evil, and destroy it. The only way to achieve this is:- Free Tharizdun, as he is the only that can find/reach the original seed- Convince all the major powers - Demons, Devils, Gods, Primordials, to aid you- Someone (any of the above, the player characters) must sacrifice himself and destroy the seed.Once it has gone, the alignments just go away. There is no more Chaotic Evil or Lawful Good - they could only existed in a Universe that contained the seed (thrown into the "camp" of Chaos). Chaos and Law remain, and maybe they can work in harmony, Chaos responsible for creation or destruction of new things (worlds, stars, races, people), Law for maintaining it. There will be a cycle between chaos and law for all time - worlds are created by chaos, law maintains them for a while, but there will always come an end, where they are destroyed again in chaos, to start the next cycle.Races that were typically evil no longer are - they are unaligned, and can turn to either side, but the "maniac" or dedicated evil is gone. The individual evil persons to do to each other might still exist, but they are lessened, and are not the result of some cosmic influence, but the result of misunderstanding or egoismn and can be overcome.</blockquote>
