Im making this new thread to discuss the possible implications of Killing Wodin in regards to the shades as it was causing the other topic to veer quite offtopic..

That still does not address why the shades would send people to go kill the Golemus Wizard, It really doesnt make sense that they would do so with the intent of destroying themselves... And given that shades are suposedly "black water" would that mean that all "black water" would be removed as well? Including all Wind Drachorns?

EDIT:
I hope this makes more sense ^_^

Just to fast comment on a wrong supposition

There is liquid dust and shades.

Shades are a natural thing to the land of Necrovion.

For a better understanding of what liquid dust is, i invite you to read the Order forums about that.

Ah, ok thanks for clearing that up, I wasn't very sure on that specific aspect, too many rumor mills you know ^_^

But, back to the point it doesn't make much sense for the shades to order to kill themselves no?

As Liberty stated, killing Wodin would kill the shades,

Call me crazy but, Im pretty sure the shades existed before wodin, and would continue to do so if anything that action would weaken them, not kill them..

To which I am still trying to make sense of, given his logical structuring..

Well under that notion given that the Golemus Wizard was the sole inhabitant of Golemus, if anything the shades should be even more powerful than ever given that GG is vastly inhabited now, why else would the shades send someone to kill the Wizard? I still really don't see how that would kill the shades but then again, Im crazy...

Let me get my thoughts in words...

Ok, so i drop this lines: Wodin balance the shades because he was outside Necrovion/shades. Now there is a big problem and unbalance : Wodin is withing the shades control that means his power drops shades power drops. That means it is a wrong thing to Necro people and a good thing to anti Necro people. Correct me if i am wrong.

I believe that would make sense, but then the summoned army was still just as strong, as it was before, or perhaps this would explain why the shade sentinel did not appear at the stone of twisted souls during the burning of the cube?

Ok so then I was correct in that based on the balance that killing wodin would not kill the shades merely only weaken them?

So to be quite honest I am rather confused on the entire matter, logically one thing should happen but it seems to me that the opposite may be true ^_^ (I need more coffee >_<)

Personally, given that the shades was already there before wodin came to this world, I really doubt killing wodin will kill the shades. However, it certainly would greatly weaken him. As it was once said, if the shades are mirrors, then wodin is a great bright pillar of light to which the shades reflect on an became powerful. If the great light dies, then the shades will lose a large power source, yet the shades do not reflect on only wodin, and killing him won't kill the shades.

Now that the light of wodin is controlled by the shades though, the shades are probably greatly weakened.. When wodin stopped going to war against them, the shades were greatly weakened, when wodin is under their control, inevitably they will get weakened even more.

some thoughts:

1. about all this killing wodin would kill the shades/peace/sentinels, etc...

what you are speculating about is a thing of the past. do you really deny that the pillar of light that was wodin already disappeared? if this has weakened the shades or not is for you to observe. true, the puppet 'wodin' still remains, but are you seriously trying to say that it was his physical component and not the true soul of wodin, which is gone, that created the unbalance that strenghtened the shades?

although my questions are rhetorical, i obviously do not have the answer to them. who of you can say they know 'for sure'?


2. wodin under the controll of the shades?

ok, so the sentinels controll the puppet wodin now, and already learned how to pull some strings (yeah, you get the referrence). so, we agree that indeed the sentinels controll wodin, not the shades. i remember people stressing the point that the sentinels and the shades are seperate entities. and as we have seen from the attack of the summoned army against jester, current leader of the sentinels, they are indeed different to such a degree that it cannot yet be claimed to really understand the other.
so again, my question.

if you disregrad all the above and still assume the shades had controll over wodin, and that this would indeed weaken them to a severe degree, i ask you, why keep the controll? are the shades, them of all, slaves to their possession (and how else should i describe owning a puppet?)

the following applies to both the controll of wodin and of the white:
"you only own what you can take and hold.
you only own that which you can give away.
whatever you cannot give away owns you."
