i can’t remember the exact lore right tnow, but thinking about it it would make sense for chaos to have been the one to destroy the island instead of nero so that they could build akursius keep with more land and resources
He did it to kill everyone, the fortress was a covrerup and a tactical advantage.
He didn’t say “perfect place for my new fortress!” And THEN nuke a continent
I don’t understand. I DO NOT assume he intended to blow up the island just because, I assume he wanted everyone dead and then blew it up to kill them all, then built a fortress on it for conveniece, then Chaos started edging to that typa evil and busted on the fortress
they’re saying that you’re saying that nero can’t have wanted to build the fortress at the start because he had already decided that he was going to destroy the island, basically using your argument to support your argument
Okay, here’s what I think happen.
Nero wants the sea to himself, Kessler says no, Nero blows up Kessler’s home, family, kingdom, and inhabitants, Nero kills Kessler, Nero decides to build fortress on the rocks that used to be winterveil, chaos gets zesty and magic-pollutes it, but evilly.
Now here’s the issue
Your counterargument to “he didn’t blow it up because he wanted a fortress so he just committed genocide” is saying he didn’t intend to build a fortress on the island because he already intended to blow it up, but the problem is that reasoning only works if you make the assumption that he intended to blow it up, which would automatically make your argument correct. I’m saying he DIDNT intend to blow it up, and he DID intend to build a fortress
because if he had decided on building a fortress on winterveil’s island before defeating them, it would make less sense for him to completely destroy the island, and honestly seems like a better plan
I’m saying Nero premeditated a fortress being built on the remains of winterveil and therefore DIDNT destroy the physical island, chaos (which is the force of PURE DESTRUCTION) is the thing that physically altered the landmass
