///Reading this got me thinking : we know a lot about Arkat but not much about what got him going.

Why in hell did the nybies, from Dorastor and Peloria, did got all the way down south to convert people who had had no part in the God Project, then poison them with disease, create vampirs etc ? Did Bright Nysalor really knew of this venture ? Was he/she aware of these vile deeds ? And if he wasn't, then the Arkat killed an innocent, and destroyed countless lives and cities to do it, while said innocent was trying his best to protect him/herself.

Who exactly began the "nybie" mess in malkioni lands ?
