How strong is Nero?

So… Chaos blew up the island, then it was inhabited by Ravenna, then Nero came along and blew up Rackham?

I’m kidding, I just had that come to mind from the idea of a role reversal and thought itwas funny.

The destruction seems like a product of the genocide. Nero wanted Winterveil’s people gone, so he blew up the island.

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

Nero wouldn’t destroy 80% of the landmass of an island he intends to build a keep on

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

Circular reasoning, this logic only makes sense if you assume he intended to blow up the island

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

I think the conversation got completely lost then, who cares when he decided to build it?

That’s not what we’re saying either

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.

Checks out

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

Well, he DID blow it up, and he was still able to build a fortress there, so I think it all worked in his favor.

This is the exact thing I’m saying didn’t happen

Okay, so we’re back on track then. Explain exactly what you’re getting at.

wait so are you saying that nero is responsible for the shape and layout of akursius and chaos just made the insanity party?

I did twice, sock did 3 times, go figure out basic reading comprehension before engaging in further arguments please :pray:

Is that not what happened?
I mean, maybe a couple extra bricks fell over from Chaos.

I’m asking you to say it again, because last time you said it, we got into a whole thing about when Nero wanted a fortress there and why

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

So Nero gets arrested, then Chaos destroys it, then they build a fortress?
