In Response To: Two questions, one simple, one debate-able (redstar)

: Simple one first. In Myth:TFL why did Soulblighter's army
: leave right when/after Alric's army killed the
: Watcher? If soublighter continued shadowing Alric's
: army he would have "eventually" caught up
: with him and killed him.

: Now I know that in the level Across the Gjol that much of
: Soulblighter's army was decimated by ambushers of the
: legion... but that couldn't have been his WHOLE army.
: So basically Soublighter vanished when he could have
: continued chasing the legion and possibly save Balor.
: I mean what was he doing at the Great Devoid? Did he
: know in advance that Balor's head was going to be cut
: off no matter what, so he went and "camped"
: (sorry for the vocab here, I've been meeting too many
: of these campers in Counter-strike) near the great
: devoid, awaiting those thirty or more men from the
: last remaining group of the legion?

Perhaps Soulblighter somehow knew or guessed what Alric would do and considering Alric and his band mysteriously teleport to the Great Devoid, Soulblighter needed a head start... just look how well he has his troops positioned. As you said he probably camped out.

: (note I thought this would be easy cause I'm sure there
: is some fact I overlooked that would have given me a
: quick answer)

: 2nd... I'm a bit confused. What is the leveler's purpose?
: There are those who say he destroys the balance of the
: world in golden ages, and there are those who say he
: balances the world by killing overpopulated people who
: are flourishing too much in golden ages. Which one is
: it? (or if neither one.. what is his purpose?)

No one technically knows for sure why the Leveler does the things it does, but the two main theories are the ones you pointed out. Yes, the Leveler is the ruler of the dark age until he is killed by the next ruler of the light age, but I'm sure I've missed or screwed something up and Im sure I'll hear about it :)
: Also, in the epilogue to Myth II it says that the balance
: is more of a "wave" type thing, where in one
: era it is a golden age, and another it is a dark age.
: The leveller is simply the ruler of the dark age.

: These 3 things make things very difficult :/
