The DO is basically an inhuman chaotic and corrupting force, contrary to the order and creation the Creator stands for. The DO wants to break his prison of course. Furthermore, I think he wants/has to destroy all of creation, because it's basically his nature. Possibly he ultimately wants to destroy the Creator as well (maybe, though, there is a cosmic rule, that they can't directly kill each other, a'la Lost). What would happen or what the DO would do if everything else is destroyed is hard to say. Maybe the DO would extinguish as well, or just rest for all eternity. As RJ said, one can't really grasp his motivation with a human mind, because the DO is basically a God.

What I never understand in any fantasy series... - 09/06/2010 10:22:13 PM 769 Views
utter evil always seems a bit shallow in the end - 09/06/2010 11:16:59 PM 621 Views
Especially if you're immortal - 10/06/2010 03:47:26 AM 585 Views
Here's another stumper for these things, but first - 10/06/2010 12:08:41 AM 683 Views
Without discussing theodicy (that's a CMB sort of discussion)... - 10/06/2010 03:53:31 AM 981 Views
I don't think RJ shows a balanced power system - 10/06/2010 12:23:03 PM 585 Views
It's name is the Creator, maby it's unable to destroy the DO? *NM* - 15/06/2010 09:02:12 AM 239 Views
I think I get the goal of the one in WoT though. *NM* - 10/06/2010 12:11:57 AM 249 Views
It's like Aerosmith said... - 10/06/2010 01:36:17 AM 591 Views
But Shai'tan is operating as though it's about the goal, not the journey. *NM* - 10/06/2010 03:55:27 AM 267 Views
That is his thought... - 11/06/2010 01:54:42 AM 505 Views
I agree that Shaitan must've been behind the "Crying/Crazy/Amazin'" songs *NM* - 10/06/2010 03:25:26 PM 329 Views
that's kind of the point... - 10/06/2010 04:19:30 AM 586 Views
This. - 10/06/2010 04:40:34 AM 598 Views
Exactly. I've been saying this for quite a while - 10/06/2010 10:29:01 PM 515 Views
I'll give this a go... - 10/06/2010 05:19:49 AM 636 Views
destroy the circular nature of the wheel, instead of the wheel - 11/06/2010 05:04:41 PM 522 Views
I don't agree with many of these people - I think the bad guys have plausible agendas - 10/06/2010 08:45:52 AM 553 Views
Personally I think the Wheel is the DOs prison not just an "eyesore" - 10/06/2010 12:29:13 PM 505 Views
Probably a chicken and egg scenario - 10/06/2010 03:29:34 PM 495 Views
probably! - 11/06/2010 02:18:29 AM 520 Views

It could be that Dark One's goal is own death - 10/06/2010 02:18:13 AM 555 Views
Then why would he fight so hard? - 10/06/2010 03:54:55 AM 674 Views
I like this idea... - 10/06/2010 08:47:52 AM 598 Views
I don't think he can die - 10/06/2010 08:57:05 AM 575 Views
Well... - 10/06/2010 04:32:45 AM 633 Views
So... - 10/06/2010 08:49:48 AM 620 Views
Seems unlikely to me. - 10/06/2010 06:09:46 PM 592 Views

Oh, no. - 11/06/2010 06:26:55 AM 549 Views
