It would be formed in the Void, of course! But I will ask you: Where did these books obtain the information? Someone had to write them. And if they speak of the Void as to give you the impression that is antithesis to all that is Good, then how do you know they don't lie? A book is only as honest as it's author. And as for not corrupting anything...you know this how? What if a book was written by one of the Void Beings?
But very well. If you have these books, allow me to read them, and perhaps I will be 'shown the light' of your way of thinking, eh?
They are not directly involved, perhaps, but the trade has to do with their sheer number, and instead of being involved in fighting, they benefit from it by acting as arms dealers and enabling massive loss of life.
I cannot truly tell what their end-goals are, actually. It was called a Watcher; whether that meant it wanted to see more violence, or keep it from growing, I cannot tell.
How do you know the books are not corrupting you themselves? You seem to place a great deal of stock on presumably mortal writings.
You have a point, Azem, as I said. However, in that sense, they are also discouraged from worshiping other gods, are they not? I do not believe I have many followers among your people, but perhaps that is because the values they hold and those I hold rarely intertwine.
I have doubts as to an Orb which only enhances ambition being able to bring stability and peace on it's own.
