: While I do recall "Balor's greatest secret"
: from some text or another, I don't recall the exact
: phrasing used, nor do I see an exact quote. Therefore,
: any argument based on that in this post is simply not
: acceptable. You must maintain your chain of evidence.
: Besides, Balor's greatest secret was likely how he did
: what he did with the Myrkridia, since he hated them so
: much, since they were in M2 and not TFL (imprisoned in
: the Tain in the Wind Age). As his most trusted
: lieutenant, Soulblighter would be likely learn of this
: from Balor at some time or another.
Having learned Balor's greatest secret, the reanimation of the dead, Soulblighter passed on this knowledge to his evil human associates so they could build him an army. These Undead are the corpses of villagers and other commoners, and are the first stage in what will eventually become a Wight.
They are nimble compared to most undead units, and while their blows do little damage, their foul stench and clammy touch can stun the living.

I believe this counters the argument that Bah'lal alone could raise thrall.
: But, Mazzarin was still killed in the Wind Age by the
: Watcher and seven waves of thrall, meaning that
: Bahl'al is extremely ancient, assuming of course that
: the phrase 'Children of Bahl'al' is correct, and as it
: came from Bungie's own website, I'd assume it is.
While I believe Children of Bahl'al to be a correct epithet of the thrall, I don't feel it's enough to suggest that Bah'lal alone had the power to create them though he was probably the first to do so.
