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 734 Views
utter evil always seems a bit shallow in the end - 09/06/2010 11:16:59 PM 582 Views
Especially if you're immortal - 10/06/2010 03:47:26 AM 556 Views
Here's another stumper for these things, but first - 10/06/2010 12:08:41 AM 630 Views
Without discussing theodicy (that's a CMB sort of discussion)... - 10/06/2010 03:53:31 AM 932 Views
I don't think RJ shows a balanced power system - 10/06/2010 12:23:03 PM 544 Views
It's name is the Creator, maby it's unable to destroy the DO? *NM* - 15/06/2010 09:02:12 AM 222 Views
I think I get the goal of the one in WoT though. *NM* - 10/06/2010 12:11:57 AM 235 Views
It's like Aerosmith said... - 10/06/2010 01:36:17 AM 553 Views
But Shai'tan is operating as though it's about the goal, not the journey. *NM* - 10/06/2010 03:55:27 AM 251 Views
That is his thought... - 11/06/2010 01:54:42 AM 471 Views
I agree that Shaitan must've been behind the "Crying/Crazy/Amazin'" songs *NM* - 10/06/2010 03:25:26 PM 309 Views
that's kind of the point... - 10/06/2010 04:19:30 AM 544 Views
This. - 10/06/2010 04:40:34 AM 552 Views
Exactly. I've been saying this for quite a while - 10/06/2010 10:29:01 PM 482 Views
I'll give this a go... - 10/06/2010 05:19:49 AM 597 Views
destroy the circular nature of the wheel, instead of the wheel - 11/06/2010 05:04:41 PM 474 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 521 Views
Personally I think the Wheel is the DOs prison not just an "eyesore" - 10/06/2010 12:29:13 PM 477 Views
Probably a chicken and egg scenario - 10/06/2010 03:29:34 PM 454 Views
probably! - 11/06/2010 02:18:29 AM 495 Views

It could be that Dark One's goal is own death - 10/06/2010 02:18:13 AM 516 Views
Then why would he fight so hard? - 10/06/2010 03:54:55 AM 631 Views
I like this idea... - 10/06/2010 08:47:52 AM 564 Views
I don't think he can die - 10/06/2010 08:57:05 AM 542 Views
Well... - 10/06/2010 04:32:45 AM 587 Views
So... - 10/06/2010 08:49:48 AM 578 Views
Seems unlikely to me. - 10/06/2010 06:09:46 PM 561 Views

Oh, no. - 11/06/2010 06:26:55 AM 502 Views
