: The same reason an Avatara would become a Fallen Lord,
: but let me explain. Our good friend Damas was second
: in command to Connacht, correct? Well, he eventually
: fell in with the "bad" crowd doing some
: self-mutilation and evil rituals. He cut out his heart
: and removed his face to become immortal, and I assume
: he lost part of his soul in the process, as he feels
: nothing when he slaughters people he once saved.
: Knowing this, Balor seeks out his old friend and gets
: him to help him destroy. And after Balor gets pissed
: off by the Myrkridian Standard and blows it to pieces,
: he dies. In theory, Soulblighter would feel the same
: way, but he realizes that the krids share the same
: lust for destruction that he does, and he discovers
: the knowledge of the Summoner who will resurrect them.
: So he uses that guy to re-create the krids who bring
: mass destruction upon the people, which is what
: Soulblighter now wants because he is evil. Balor
: recalls his own hatred of the krids, but not realizing
: that adding them to his forces, he could bring their
: horror to the entire world. He would probably want to
: use the krids if he had the chance to.

Waaaaait a minute. Damas was a Heron Guard? Doesn't he have immortality /anyway/? (Unless of course, we're talking about the must-be-physically-hacked-into-tiny-quivering-gibbets-to-actually-kill-the-guy sort of immortality, which would explain his incredible toughness. Martel, you idiot, you've just answered your own question.
